MANAGEMENT COMMENTS 

Rex L. Smith, III, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The third quarter showed a continuation of many of the positive trends we saw in the first half of 2018.  While loan growth year to date remains well below what we experienced in previous years, it is in line with the trends we see in most banks.  Our conservative approach to loan pricing and credit quality has allowed us to increase our margin and continue growth of low cost deposits.  Our branches, specifically our newer ones, are gaining good deposit momentum, which has allowed us to significantly pay down our wholesale fundings and increase our noninterest bearing deposit base."

Smith added, "Our disciplined approach to balance sheet management continues to pay off in the rising rate environment.  It shows in most of the major metrics of the Company including asset quality, net interest margin and return on total assets. Our earnings year to date are the highest they have been in the history of the Company."

Smith concluded, "We continue to focus on total return for our shareholders and will remain disciplined in our growth in all areas.  Given our balance sheet and the current rate environment, we remain optimistic for continued positive trends for the rest of 2018 and 2019."

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Linked Quarter Basis

Net income was $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2018, compared with net income of $3.8 million in the second quarter of 2018.   Basic earnings per common share were $0.18 per share and $0.17 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively. Fully diluted earnings per share were $0.17 for each of the three months ended September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018. The increase in net income of $173,000, or 4.6%, for the third quarter of 2018 compared with the second quarter of 2018, was primarily the result of a $634,000 increase in interest and dividend income, driven by an increase of $540,000, or 4.8%, in interest and fees on loans. Also positively influencing net income were an increase of $333,000 in net interest income after provision for loan losses and an increase of $76,000 in noninterest income. Offsetting these increases were increases of $104,000 in noninterest expenses and $132,000 in income tax expense.

Year-Over-Year Nine Months

Net income was $10.3 million for the first nine months of 2018 compared with $7.8 million for the same period in 2017. This is an increase of $2.5 million, or 31.7%. Increases were in interest and dividend income, which increased by $4.2 million, or 10.6%, and in noninterest income, which increased by $351,000, or 11.6%. Also positively affecting earnings were a reduction of $150,000 in the provision for loan losses and a decrease of $389,000 in income tax expense when comparing the two periods. Offsetting these increases to net income were an increase of $1.9 million in interest expense and an increase of $629,000 in noninterest expense.By comparing pre-tax income for the two periods, most of the effect of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 is eliminated. This comparison reflects that income before income taxes increased by $2.1 million, or 19.9%, for the first nine months of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017.

Year-Over-Year Quarter

Net income of $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2018 was an increase of $1.5 million, or 63.7%, over third quarter 2017 net income of $2.4 million. Pre-tax net income increased $1.6 million, or 46.9%, in the third quarter of 2018. Interest and dividend income increased by $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017, driven by interest and fees on loans, which increased $1.8 million. Noninterest income increased by $213,000 year-over-year, and noninterest expenses declined by $248,000. Offsetting these increases was an increase in income tax expense, which was $26,000 greater, year-over-year, based on the increase in pre-tax income but lessened by the reduction in the corporate tax rate, from 34% to 21%.

The following table presents summary income statements for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018, and September 30, 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017.

Net Interest Income

Linked Quarter Basis

Net interest income was $12.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 compared with $11.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.  This is an increase of $333,000, or 2.9%.

Interest income with respect to loans, excluding PCI loans, increased $540,000, or 4.8%, during the third quarter when compared with the second quarter of 2018.  This increase was attributed to an increase in the average balance of loans, excluding PCI loans, of $6.8 million during the third quarter of 2018 over the previous quarter, coupled with higher rates.  The yield on loans increased from 4.75% in the second quarter of 2018 to 4.89% in the third quarter of 2018. Interest income with respect to PCI loans was $1.3 million in each of the second and third quarters of 2018.  Interest income on securities increased $79,000 on a linked quarter basis. Interest on deposits in other banks increased $25,000 on a linked quarter basis primarily due to an increase in the return on those balances from 1.85% in the second quarter of 2018 to 2.45% in the third quarter of 2018.

Securities income was $2.0 million on a tax-equivalent basis for the third quarter of 2018, which was an increase of $74,000 from the second quarter of 2018.  The tax-equivalent yield on the securities portfolio was 3.21% in the third quarter of 2018 compared with a tax-equivalent yield of 3.11% in the second quarter of 2018.

Interest expense of $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2018 was an increase of $301,000, or 10.5%, on a linked quarter basis.  Interest on deposits increased $344,000, or 14.6%.  Interest on borrowed funds decreased by $43,000, or 8.5%.  Average balances for interest bearing deposits increased by $15.7 million, or 1.6%. However, the cost of these deposits increased from 0.99% in the second quarter of 2018 to 1.10% in the third quarter of 2018, resulting in a 10.5% increase in interest expense. The increased rates paid on interest bearing deposits and wholesale funding resulted in an increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities from 1.08% in the second quarter of 2018 to 1.18% in the third quarter of 2018.

With the changes in interest income noted above, the tax-equivalent net interest margin increased from 3.73% in the second quarter of 2018 to 3.77% in the third quarter of 2018. Likewise, the interest spread increased from 3.56% to 3.58% on a linked quarter basis.

Year-Over-Year Nine Months

For the first nine months of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017, net interest income increased $2.2 million, or 6.8%, and was $35.1 million. The yield on earning assets was 4.67% for the first nine months of 2018 compared with 4.55% for the first nine months of 2017. Interest and fees on loans of $34.1 million in the first three quarters of 2018 was an increase of $4.4 million compared with $29.7 million for the same period in 2017.  Interest and fees on PCI loans declined $418,000 over this same time frame.  Securities income increased $88,000 for the first nine months of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017.  Interest on deposits in other banks increased $60,000 for the first three quarters of 2018 over the same period in 2017 primarily due to an increase in the return on those balances from 1.22% to 2.08% in 2018. On a tax-equivalent basis, income on securities decreased $402,000, primarily the result of less benefit on bank qualified municipal securities from the enactment in December 2017 of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act. The tax-equivalent yield on the portfolio was 3.10% for the first three quarters of 2018, based on a 21% tax rate, and 3.14% for the same period in 2017, based on a 34% tax rate.

Interest expense of $8.6 million represented an increase of $1.9 million in the first nine months of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $50.9 million, or 5.0%, as loan growth has been fueled by an increase of $42.0 million, or 16.6%, in the average balance of demand - interest bearing accounts.  This has allowed more expensive time deposit balances to decrease, on average, by $11.4 million, or 2.0%, resulting in a $33.1 million increase in the average balance of total deposits.

The tax equivalent net interest margin declined from 3.80% for the first nine months of 2017 to 3.76% for the first nine months of 2018. While the yield on earning assets increased by 12 basis points over this time frame, the competition for funding has pushed the cost of interest bearing liabilities up, from 0.89% to 1.09%.  Likewise, the net interest spread declined and was 3.58% for the first nine months of 2018 versus 3.66% for the first nine months of 2017.

Year-Over-Year Quarter

Net interest income increased $954,000, or 8.7%, from the third quarter of 2017 to the third quarter of 2018. Net interest income was $12.0 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared with $11.0 million for the same period in 2017.  Interest and dividend income increased $1.8 million, or 13.1%, over this time period.  The increase in interest and dividend income was generated by an increase of $70.3 million, or 5.8%, in the level of earning assets.  The yield on earning assets increased from 4.51% in the third quarter of 2017 to 4.76% in the third quarter of 2018. The average balance of loans, excluding PCI loans, increased $96.3 million, or 11.1%, from $869.5 million in the third quarter of 2017 to $965.8 million in the third quarter of 2018.  Interest income on securities increased $119,000 and was $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2018 and $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2017. On a tax-equivalent basis, the yield on investment securities was 3.21% in the third quarter of 2018, based on a 21% tax rate, and 3.10% in the third quarter of 2017, based on a 34% tax rate.  Interest on deposits in the other banks increased by $29,000 in the third quarter of 2018 over the same period in 2017 primarily due to an increase in the return on those balances from 1.40% in 2017 to 2.45% in 2018.

Interest on PCI loans was $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared with $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2017.  The average balance of the PCI portfolio declined $7.7 million during the year-over-year comparison period.

Interest expense increased $801,000, or 33.9%, when comparing the third quarter of 2017 and the third quarter of 2018. Interest expense on deposits increased $646,000, or 31.5%, as the average balance of interest bearing deposits increased $33.5 million, or 3.6%.  The increase in deposit cost was driven by an increase in the average balance of demand – interest bearing accounts, which increased a combined $4.2 million year-over-year. Likewise, the cost of these balances increased $13,000, from 0.40% to 0.42%, over the same time frame. Higher cost time deposit average balances increased over the comparison period by $25.7 million, and expense on this category increased by $631,000, resulting in an increase in cost from 1.19% to 1.56%. The average balance of FHLB and other borrowings increased, on average, $13.1 million year-over-year, and there was an increase in the rate paid, from 1.57% in the third quarter of 2017 to 1.98% in the third quarter of 2018. This resulted in an increase in the expense of this wholesale funding source of $144,000, to $452,000 in the third quarter of 2018.  The average balance of FHLB and other borrowings was $90.8 million in the third quarter of 2018. Overall, the Bank's cost of interest bearing liabilities increased 26 basis points, from 0.92% in the third quarter of 2017 to 1.18% in the third quarter of 2018.

The tax-equivalent net interest margin increased three basis points, from 3.74% in the third quarter of 2018 to 3.77% in the third quarter of 2018.  The interest spread decreased from 3.59% to 3.58% over the same time period.  Net interest margin increased despite the decrease in interest spread because growth in the average balance of earning assets of $70.3 million was partially funded by growth in the average balance of noninterest bearing deposits of $18.9 million.

The following table compares the Company's net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017.

Provision for Loan Losses

The Company records a separate provision for loan losses for its loan portfolio, excluding PCI loans, and the PCI loan portfolio.  There was no provision for loan losses on the loan portfolio, excluding PCI loans, during either the third quarter or the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This compares with a provision for loan losses of $150,000 for the third quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The absence of a provision during the third quarter of 2018 was the direct result of nominal charge-offs and stable asset quality, coupled with the level of loan growth during the period. There was no provision for loan losses on the PCI loan portfolio during any of 2018 or 2017.  Additional discussion of loan quality is presented below.

Noninterest Income

Linked Quarter Basis

Noninterest income was $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2018, an increase of $76,000 compared with $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2018.  Gain (loss) on securities transactions, net exhibited a linked quarter change of $84,000.  Gains of $68,000 were realized on the sale of securities in the third quarter of 2018 compared with losses of $16,000 realized in the second quarter of 2018. Mortgage loan income increased $17,000 on a linked quarter basis and was $97,000 in the third quarter of 2018. Service charges and fees increased $15,000 on a linked quarter basis and were $626,000 for the third quarter of 2018. There was $65,000 in gain on sale of loans in the third quarter of 2018 versus $53,000 in the second quarter of 2018. Offsetting these increases to noninterest income was other noninterest income of $171,000, which was a decrease of $52,000 from the second quarter of 2018. The linked quarter change was primarily attributable to a decrease of $59,000 in brokerage commission income in the third quarter of 2018.

Year-Over-Year Nine Months

Noninterest income was $3.4 million for the first nine months of 2018, an increase of $351,000, or 11.6%, compared with $3.0 million for the first nine months of 2017. Service charges and fees increased $153,000 for the first nine months of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017 and were $1.8 million. Mortgage loan income of $288,000 for the first nine months of 2018 was an increase of $125,000 from $163,000 for the same period in 2017. Gain on sale of loans was $118,000 for the first nine months of 2018 versus $0 for the same period in 2017. Other noninterest income, driven by higher brokerage commission and investment dividend income, reflected an increase of $74,000 for the first nine months of 2018 over the same period in 2017. Partially offsetting these increases was a decline of $98,000 in gain (loss) on securities transactions, net, which were $82,000 for the first nine months of 2018.

Year-Over-Year Quarter

Noninterest income increased $213,000, or 21.3%, and was $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared with $998,000 in the third quarter of 2017. Service charges and fees exhibited the largest increase, $68,000, in the third quarter of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017 and were $626,000.  Gain on sale of loans was $65,000 in the third quarter of 2018 compared with $0 in the third quarter of 2017. Mortgage loans increased $38,000 year-over-year, from $59,000 in the third quarter of 2017 to $97,000 in the same period in 2018.  Other noninterest income, once again as a result of improved brokerage commission and investment dividend income, increased $26,000 year-over-year.

Noninterest Expenses

Linked Quarter Basis

Noninterest expenses totaled $8.3 million for the third quarter of 2018, as compared with $8.2 million for the second quarter of 2018, an increase of $104,000, or 1.3%.  Other operating expenses increased by $63,000 on a linked quarter basis, driven by increases of $79,000 in credit expense, $75,000 in stationery, printing and supplies, $28,000 in other expenses and $23,000 in marketing expense. Offsetting these increases to other operating expenses was a decrease of $142,000 in bank franchise tax due to refunds received on amended returns during the third quarter of 2018. Also increasing on a linked quarter basis was equipment expense, which was $366,000 for the third quarter of 2018 versus $344,000 for the previous quarter, an increase of $22,000

Year-Over-Year Nine Months

Noninterest expenses were $25.8 million for the first nine months of 2018, as compared with $25.2 million for the same period in 2017.  This is an increase of $629,000, or 2.5%. Salaries and employee benefits increased $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017. Within this increase, $668,000 was related to group hospital and medical insurance increases and $576,000 was related to increases in total salaries.  Also impacting noninterest expenses for the first nine months of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017 were increases of $175,000 in equipment expenses and $32,000 in occupancy expenses reflecting the opening of three new branches during the second half of 2017. Other real estate expenses, net, also increased $60,000 during the same period. These increases were offset by a decline of $878,000 in amortization of intangibles, which became fully amortized in 2017, and a decline of $273,000 in other operating expenses. Significant decreases in 2018 in other operating expenses were declines of $160,000 in telephone and internet line expense as a result of bringing line monitoring management in-house during the second quarter of 2018, $135,000 in credit expense, $97,000 in stationery, printing and supplies and $79,000 in bank franchise tax. Other expenses included in other operating expenses increased $140,000 for the first nine months of 2018 compared with the same period in 2017 as did outside vendor fees, which increased by $92,000.

Year-Over-Year Quarter

Noninterest expenses decreased $248,000, or 2.9%, when comparing the third quarter of 2018 to the same period in 2017. Other operating expenses decreased $265,000, or 16.1%. Bank franchise tax declined by $121,000 over the comparison period due to the previously mentioned refund, as did telephone and internet line expense, which decreased by $114,000 due to the in-house change noted above, and credit expense, which decreased by $67,000. Occupancy expense decreased by $77,000 year-over-year and amortization of intangibles decreased $62,000 year-over-year. Offsetting these decreases to noninterest expenses were increases of $78,000 in salaries and employee benefits, $61,000 in equipment expenses and $26,000 in other real estate expenses, net.

The following table compares the Company's other operating expenses included in noninterest expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018, December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017.
