HOME FEDERAL BANCORP, INC. OF LOUISIANA REPORTS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023

 

Shreveport, Louisiana – January 25, 2024 – Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. of Louisiana (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: HFBL), the holding company of Home Federal Bank, reported net income for the three months ended December 31, 2023, of $1.0 million compared to net income of $1.7 million reported for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.33 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.57 and $0.55, respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The Company reported net income of $2.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $3.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022.

The Company reported the following highlights during the six months ended December 31, 2023:

 

Total loans receivable, net for the six months ended December 31, 2023 increased $12.3 million, or 2.5%, to $501.8 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $489.5 million at June 30, 2023.

The Company’s average interest rate spread was 2.60% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 3.70% for the six months ended December 31, 2022.

The Company’s net interest margin was 3.26% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 3.91% for the six months ended December 31, 2022.

Nonperforming assets totaled $2.2 million, or 0.34% of total assets at December 31, 2023 compared to $1.6 million, or 0.24% of total assets, at June 30, 2023.

 

The decrease in net income for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to same period in 2022 resulted primarily from an increase of $693,000, or 19.4%, in non-interest expense, a decrease of $421,000, or 7.9%, in net interest income, and a decrease of $402,000, or 74.5%, in non-interest income, partially offset by a decrease of $640,000, or 144.1%, in provision (benefit) for income taxes, and a decrease of $166,000, or 110.7%, in the provision for credit losses. The decrease in net interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to same period in 2022, was primarily due to an increase of $2.4 million, or 315.9%, in total interest expense, partially offset by an increase of $2.0 million, or 32.7%, in total interest income.  The Company’s average interest rate spread was 2.45% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 3.67% for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.14% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 3.91% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

 

The decrease in net income for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to same period in 2022 resulted primarily from an increase of $1.1 million, or 15.4%, in non-interest expense, a decrease of $514,000, or 47.3%, in non-interest income, a decrease of $443,000, or 4.2%, in net interest income, partially offset by a decrease of $584,000, or 102.8%, in the provision for credit losses, and a decrease of $339,000, or 74.7%, in provision for income taxes. The decrease in net interest income for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to same period in 2022, was primarily due to an increase of $4.7 million, or 381.3%, in total interest expense, partially offset by an increase of $4.3 million, or 36.1%, in total interest income.  The Company’s average interest rate spread was 2.60% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 compared to 3.70% for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.26% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 compared to 3.91% for the six months ended December 31, 2022.

On July 1, 2023, the Company adopted the new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology for estimating credit losses.   This resulted in a $189,000 increase to the allowance for credit losses (the “ACL”) and a one-time cumulative adjustment resulted in a $149,000, net of tax, decrease to stockholders’ equity.   For purchased credit deteriorated loans, the Company applied the guidance under CECL using the prospective transition approach.  As a result, the Company adjusted the amortized cost basis of the purchased credit deteriorated loans by $170,000 to reclassify the purchase discount to the allowance for credit losses on July 1, 2023.   The ACL account increased $359,000 from these two transactions.  No provision expense was recorded in the first quarter of 2024 and a recovery of credit losses in the provision of $16,000 was recorded in the second quarter of 2024.  As of December 31, 2023, the ACL was $5.1 million, and the ratio of ACL to gross loans was 1.00%.  As of June 30, 2023, the ACL was $5.2 million, and the ratio of ACL to gross loans was 1.05%.

The $402,000 decrease in non-interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the prior year quarterly period, was primarily due to an increase of $381,000 in loss on sale of real estate, and a $66,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by a $38,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts, an increase of $5,000 in other non-interest income, and an increase of $2,000 in income on bank owned life insurance. The $514,000 decrease in non-interest income for the six months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the prior year six-month period was primarily due to an increase of $415,000 in loss on sale of real estate, and a decrease of $202,000 in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by a $94,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts, an increase of $7,000 in other non-interest income, and a $2,000 increase in income from bank owned life insurance. The decreases in gain on sale of loans for both the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2023, were primarily due to a decrease in refinance activity causing a decrease in mortgage loan originations. In addition, in recent periods the Company has increased its originations of adjustable rate mortgages for portfolio rather than for sale in the secondary market. The increases in loss on sale of real estate for both the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2023, were primarily due to the bulk sale of twenty-one distressed rental properties.

 

The $693,000 increase in non-interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, is primarily attributable to increases of $235,000 in compensation and benefits expense, $186,000 in audit and examination fees, $113,000 in professional fees,  $85,000 in amortization of core deposit intangible expense, $55,000 in deposit insurance premium expense, $46,000 in occupancy and equipment expense, $42,000 in franchise and bank shares tax expense, $38,000 in other non-interest expense, and $14,000 in advertising expense. The increases were partially offset by a decrease of $91,000 in data processing expense, and $30,000 in loan and collection expense. The $1.1 million increase in non-interest expense for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the same six-month period in 2022, is primarily attributable to increases of $309,000 in compensation and benefits expense, $213,000 in audit and examination fees, $179,000 in amortization of core deposit intangible expense, $147,000 in professional fees, $99,000 in deposit insurance premium expense, $93,000 in occupancy and equipment expense, $83,000 in advertising expense, and $79,000 in franchise and bank shares tax expense. The increases were partially offset by decreases of $27,000 in data processing expense, $26,000 in other non-interest expense, and $22,000 in loan and collection expense. The increases in compensation and benefits expense were primarily due to additional branch and back office staff.

 

At December 31, 2023, the Company reported total assets of $654.2 million, a decrease of $6.7 million, or 1.0%, compared to total assets of $660.9 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease in assets was comprised primarily of decreases in cash and cash equivalents of $16.1 million, or 65.0%, from $24.8 million at June 30, 2023 to $8.7 million at December 31, 2023, investment securities of $5.2 million, or 4.5%, from $114.0 million at June 30, 2023 to $108.8 million at December 31, 2023, real estate owned of $368,000, or 100.0% from $368,000 at June 30, 2023 to none at December 31, 2023, core deposit intangible of $179,000, or 11.7%, from $1.5 million at June 30, 2023 to $1.4 million at December 31, 2023, deferred tax asset of $140,000, or 10.7%, from $1.3 million at June 30, 2023 to $1.2 million at December 31, 2023, other assets of $117,000, or 8.2%, from $1.4 million at June 30, 2023 to $1.3 million at December 31, 2023. These decreases were partially offset by increases in net loans receivable of $12.3 million, or 2.5%, from $489.5 million at June 30, 2023 to $501.8 million at December 31, 2023, loans-held-for-sale of $1.8 million, from $4,000 at June 30, 2023 to $1.9 million at December 31, 2023, premises and equipment of $1.0 million, or 6.3%, from $16.6 million at June 30, 2023 to $17.6 million at December 31, 2023, accrued interest receivable of $93,000, or 5.2%, from $1.8 million at June 30, 2023 to $1.9 million at December 31, 2023, and bank owned life insurance of $54,000, or 0.8%, from $6.7 million at June 30, 2023 to $6.8 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to a decrease in total deposits and the funding of additional loan growth.  The decrease in held to maturity securities was due to $2.9 million in principal payments.  The increase in loans held-for-sale primarily reflected an increase in loans originated for sale during the six months ended December 31, 2023.

Total liabilities decreased $8.8 million, or 1.4%, from $610.4 million at June 30, 2023 to $601.6 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease in liabilities was comprised primarily of decreases in total deposits of $13.7 million, or 2.3%, from $597.4 million at June 30, 2023 to $583.7 million at December 31, 2023, other accrued expenses and liabilities of $1.4 million, or 35.8%, from $3.9 million at June 30, 2023 to $2.5 million at December 31, 2023, and advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance of $209,000, or 37.7%, from $554,000 at June 30, 2023 to $345,000 at December 31, 2023. The decreases were partially offset by increases in short term advances from FHLB of $5.4 million from none at June 30, 2023 to $5.4 million at December 31, 2023, and other borrowings of $1.1 million, or 12.9%, from $8.6 million at June 30, 2023 to $9.7 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease in deposits was primarily due to decreases in money market deposits of $21.8 million, or 19.1%, from $114.2 million at June 30, 2023 to $92.4 million at December 31, 2023, savings deposits of $11.3 million, or 13.8%, from $81.9 million at June 30, 2023 to $70.6 million at December 31, 2023, non-interest deposits of $9.4 million, or 6.4%, from $145.6 million at June 30, 2023 to $136.2 million at December 31, 2023, NOW accounts of $150,000, or 0.2%, from $65.3 million at June 30, 2023 to $65.2 million at December 31, 2023, partially offset by an increase in certificates of deposit of $28.8 million, or 15.2%, from $190.4 million at June 30, 2023 to $219.2 million at December 31, 2023. The Company had $3.0 million in brokered deposits at both December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023. There was a shift of balances between deposit categories due to customers moving funds from lower yielding categories to higher yielding categories. The $13.7 million decrease in deposits from June 30, 2023 to December 31, 2023 was primarily due to an estate settlement totaling $24.2 million. $15.4 million of the settlement has been paid out to date, with the remaining $8.8 million to be paid out in the future. This loss of deposits resulted in an increase in short term advances from FHLB.

 

At December 31, 2023, the Company had $2.2 million of non-performing assets (defined as non-accruing loans, accruing loans 90 days or more past due, and other real estate owned) compared to $1.6 million on non-performing assets at June 30, 2023, consisting of eleven commercial non-real estate loans, six single-family residential loans, three land loans, and three home equity line-of-credit loans at December 31, 2023, compared to seven single-family residential loans, three commercial non-real estate loans, one consumer loan and two single-family residences in other real estate owned at June 30, 2023.  At December 31, 2023 the Company had 12 commercial non-real-estate loans, seven single family residential loans, four home-equity line-of-credit loans, two land loans, one commercial real estate loan, and one auto loan classified as substandard, compared to ten single family residential loans, three commercial non-real-estate loans, two commercial real estate loans, and three home equity line-of-credit loans classified as substandard at June 30, 2023.  There were no loans classified as doubtful at December 31, 2023 or June 30, 2023.

 

Shareholders’ equity increased $2.1 million, or 4.1%, to $52.6 million at December 31, 2023 from $50.5 million at June 30, 2023. The primary reasons for the changes in shareholders’ equity from June 30, 2023 was net income of $2.2 million, a decrease in the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive loss of $531,000, the vesting of restricted stock awards, stock options, and the release of employee stock ownership plan shares totaling $301,000, partially offset by dividends paid totaling $783,000, CECL implementation totaling $189,000, and stock repurchases of $30,000.
