Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2021 Dividend and Reports Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

DUNMORE, Pa., July 28, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: FDBC) and its banking subsidiary, The Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank, announced its most recent dividend declaration and unaudited, consolidated financial results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021.

Dividend Declared

The Board of Directors of Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) announced their declaration of the Company’s third quarter dividend of $0.30 per share to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 20, 2021, payable September 10, 2021.

Unaudited Financial Information

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $5.7 million, or $1.13 diluted earnings per share, compared to $0.3 million, or $0.05 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The $5.4 million improvement in net income resulted from a $2.5 million increase in net interest income, $1.9 million in additional non-interest income, a reduction of $1.6 million in the provision for loan losses and $0.5 million lower non-interest expenses. The merger with MNB Corporation (“MNB”) occurred during the second quarter of 2020 and resulted in $1.9 million in merger-related expenses during that quarter. Additionally, the earnings during the second quarter of 2020 were adversely impacted by the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. With the pandemic restrictions lifted during 2021, the Company was able to experience the positive effects of the combined balance sheet post-merger. Second quarter diluted earnings per share increased by $1.08 per share due to the higher net income.

Excluding merger-related expenses, adjusted net income was $6.1 million for the second quarter of 2021, or $1.21 diluted earnings per share, compared to adjusted net income of $2.2 million, or $0.48 diluted earnings per share, for the second quarter of 2020. For more detail on adjusted net income which is a non-GAAP measurement, refer to the “Non-GAAP Measures” table within the Selected Financial Ratios and Other Data section.

“With the posting of the second quarter financial results, we are very pleased to announce record quarterly net income and earnings per share,” stated Daniel J. Santaniello, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The continued growth in loans, deposits, and non-interest income, while effectively managing expenses, reflect the Fidelity Bankers’ commitment to building relationships and partnering with our clients to achieve mutual financial success. Fidelity Bank’s growth strategy is currently focused on executing the planned 3rd quarter integration of the Landmark Community Bank clients, branch offices, and core operating systems. It is our belief that the addition of the Landmark Bankers, clients and expanded market presence will provide long-term shareholder value.”

Landmark

As previously announced, the Company acquired Landmark Bancorp, Inc. (“Landmark”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Landmark Community Bank effective July 1, 2021. With the combination of the two organizations, the Company, on a consolidated basis, has approximately $2.3 billion in assets, $2.1 billion in deposits, and $1.4 billion in loans. The reported results are preliminary and are subject to revision in future periods when the application of the accounting guidance for business combinations is finalized. Merger-related costs related to the acquisition of Landmark totaled $0.9 million on a gross basis year-to-date through June 30, 2021.

Paycheck Protection Program

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has processed 2,573 applications totaling over $236 million in loans through the Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) proving the Company’s commitment to support small businesses within its service area, with 1,551 applications totaling over $159 million processed during the first round of PPP, which ended on August 8, 2020, and 1,022 applications totaling over $77 million processed during the second round of PPP, which ended on May 31, 2021.

As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding PPP loan balances totaled $97.6 million. Total PPP loans generated approximately $9.4 million of SBA processing fees, net of origination expenses, of which $5.9 million was earned to date with $1.1 million and $2.8 million recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The $3.5 million remaining balance is expected to continue to be earned over the remaining life of the loans; however, the fees may be recognized earlier upon loan forgiveness by the SBA or if paid off by the borrower.

Consolidated Second Quarter Operating Results Overview

Net interest income was $13.3 million for the second quarter of 2021, a 23% increase over the $10.8 million earned for the second quarter of 2020. The $2.5 million improvement in net interest income resulted primarily from a $457.3 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets which offset the declining yields on these assets supplemented by lower interest expense from a decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The loan portfolio had the biggest impact, producing a $1.2 million increase in interest income from $126.1 million in higher average balances. Higher interest income in the commercial portfolio was the driver with $111.8 million in larger average balances adding $1.4 million, which included $0.3 million from additional SBA fees recognized during the second quarter of 2021 versus the 2020 period, attributable to PPP loans. The growth in interest income on commercial loans offset lower interest income in the consumer and residential portfolios. Interest income from the investment portfolio increased $0.7 million as $247.4 million in increased average balances offset lower yields. Interest expense was $0.6 million lower due to decreases in deposit rates and a lower average balance of borrowings. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $353.0 million and the rates paid on these deposits decreased 27 basis points resulting in $0.4 million less in interest expense. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company obtained an extension of credit under the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (PPPLF) to fund originated PPP loans and also had FHLB advances. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company did not require any borrowings due to the growth in deposits which reduced interest expense on borrowings by $0.2 million.

The overall cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.27% for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of 30 basis points from the 0.57% paid for the second quarter of 2020. The cost of funds decreased 22 basis points to 0.20% for the second quarter of 2021 from 0.42% for the second quarter of 2020. The Company’s fully-taxable equivalent (“FTE”) (non-GAAP measurement) net interest spread was 3.02% for the second quarter of 2021, or 18 basis points lower than the 3.20% recorded for the second quarter of 2020. FTE net interest margin decreased by 24 basis points to 3.10% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from 3.34% for the same 2020 period.

The provision for loan losses was $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2021, a $1.6 million decrease compared to $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in the provision compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was attributed to the COVID-19-related provisioning that occurred during the second quarter of 2020. This amount of provisioning reflected what management deemed necessary to maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses at an adequate level.

Total non-interest income increased $1.9 million, or 69%, to $4.6 million for the second quarter of 2021 compared to $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to $0.7 million higher gains on loan sales during the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same 2020 period due to increased mortgage loan activity. The Company also recognized $0.5 million higher interchange fees, $0.2 million more in loan fees, $0.2 million in additional service charges on deposits and $0.1 million growth in trust fiduciary fees.

Non-interest expenses decreased $0.5 million, or 4%, for the second quarter of 2021 to $10.8 million from $11.3 million for the same quarter of 2020. The main reason for the decrease was $1.5 million less in merger-related expenses due to the timing of the MNB acquisition compared to the Landmark acquisition. There was also a $0.5 million FHLB prepayment penalty incurred during the second quarter of 2020 from the early payoff of a FHLB advance. Additionally, data processing and communications expense decreased by $0.2 million. Partially offsetting these decreases was a $0.7 million increase in salaries and employee benefits due to an increase in the number of bankers post-merger with MNB. The Company also experienced increases of $0.2 million in premises and equipment expenses, $0.2 million in professional services expenses and $0.1 million in automated transaction processing.

The provision for income taxes increased $1.0 million during the second quarter of 2021 due to higher income before income taxes compared to the second quarter of 2020.

Consolidated Year-To-Date Operating Results Overview

Net interest income was $26.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $18.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The $8.0 million, or 42%, improvement was the result of earnings from a larger average balance of interest-earning assets combined with lower interest expense from a decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The loan portfolio drove the increased interest income which grew $5.3 million from higher average balances due primarily to commercial loan activity from commercial real estate and PPP lending. The higher interest income included $2.0 million from additional SBA fees recognized during the first half of 2021 attributable to PPP loans. Interest income from investments increased $1.2 million from a $235.4 million larger average balance in the portfolio. On the funding side, interest expense decreased by $1.4 million due to lower rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and a smaller balance of average borrowings. FTE net interest spread was 3.15% for the first half of 2021, or six basis points lower than the 3.21% recorded for the first half of 2020. Over the same time period, the Company’s FTE net interest margin decreased by 15 basis points to 3.24% from 3.39%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the provision for loan losses was $1.1 million compared to $2.2 million for the same 2020 period. The $1.1 million decrease in the provision was attributed to the COVID-19-related provisioning that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2020 which was not similarly warranted during the six months ended June 30, 2021. This amount of provisioning reflected what management deemed necessary to maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses at an adequate level.

Total non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $10.1 million, an increase of $4.6 million, or 85%, from $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in other income was primarily due to $2.8 million more in gains on loan sales and $0.9 million higher interchange fees. Other increases that contributed to the non-interest income growth were as follows: $0.3 million in loan service fees, $0.2 million in earnings on bank-owned life insurance, $0.2 million in trust fiduciary fees and $0.2 million in service charges on deposits.

Non-interest expenses increased to $22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $3.7 million, or 20%, from $18.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The largest driver of this increase was a $2.6 million increase in salaries and employee benefit expenses. In addition, there was $0.7 million more premises and equipment expenses, $0.7 million higher professional services and $0.5 million more in advertising and marketing expenses. These increases were partially offset by $1.3 million less merger-related expenses recognized for the first half of 2021 as the majority of the merger-related expenses for the Landmark acquisition will be incurred during the second half of 2021.

The provision for income taxes increased $1.5 million during first half of 2021 compared to the same 2020 period due to the higher income before taxes.

Consolidated Balance Sheet & Asset Quality Overview

During the first half of 2021, the Company’s total assets increased $250 million, or 15%, to $1.9 billion as of June 30, 2021 from $1.7 billion at December 31, 2020. During the same time period, total liabilities increased $244 million, or 16%, from $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion. Deposit growth of $248 million was used to pay down borrowings, purchase securities and fund loan portfolio growth. The deposit growth includes increases in personal, public and business accounts, some of which are associated with government-provided funding programs in response to the pandemic and this funding may be temporary.

Total non-performing assets were $6.0 million, or 0.31% of total assets, at June 30, 2021, compared to $6.7 million, or 0.39% of total assets, at December 31, 2020. Past due and non-accrual loans to total loans were 0.72% at June 30, 2021 compared to 0.47% at December 31, 2020. Net charge-offs to average total loans decreased to 0.03% at June 30, 2021 compared 0.06% at June 30, 2020 and declining from 0.08% at December 31, 2020.

Shareholders’ equity increased $5.5 million, or 3%, to $172.2 million at June 30, 2021 from $166.7 million at December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily caused by $11.4 million in net income partially offset by $3.0 million in cash dividends paid to shareholders resulting in a net increase to retained earnings. The net increase in retained earnings partially offset the $3.6 million, after tax, reduction in net unrealized gains from the investment portfolio stemming from the substantial increase in intermediate to long-term U.S. treasury interest rates. An additional $0.5 million recorded from the issuance of common stock under the Company’s stock plans and stock-based compensation also contributed to the increase in shareholders' equity. The Company remains well capitalized and is positioned for continued growth with Tier 1 capital at 8.38% of total average assets as of June 30, 2021. Tangible book value per share was $32.74 at June 30, 2021 compared to $31.72 at December 31, 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to provide information useful to the reader in understanding its operating performance and trends, and to facilitate comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. Management uses these measures internally to assess and better understand our underlying business performance and trends related to core business activities. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators may differ from the non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators other financial institutions used to measure their performance and trends. Non-GAAP financial measures should be supplemental to GAAP used to prepare the Company’s operating results and should not be read in isolation or relied upon as a substitute for GAAP measures. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP operating measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables at the end of this release.

Management believes merger-related expenses are not standard costs necessary for operations. These charges principally represent professional fees and system conversion and integration costs related to the transaction. These costs are specific to each individual transaction and may vary significantly based on the size and complexity of the transaction. Management also believes the FHLB prepayment fee incurred to payoff FHLB advances is non-recurring and should be excluded from normal operating expenses for proper comparison.

Interest income was adjusted to recognize the income from tax exempt interest-earning assets as if the interest was taxable, fully-taxable equivalent (FTE), in order to calculate certain ratios within this document. This treatment allows a uniform comparison among yields on interest-earning assets. Interest income was FTE adjusted, using the corporate federal tax rate of 21% for 2021 and 2020.
