MIDDLETOWN, Md., April 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Community Heritage Financial, Inc. ("the Company") (OTCPink: CMHF), the parent company for Middletown Valley Bank ("MVB") and Millennium Financial Group, Inc. ("Mlend"), announced today that, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company earned net income of $510 thousand or $0.23 per share compared to net income of $305 thousand and earnings per share of $0.14 recorded for the first quarter of 2019. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was positively impacted by the performance of Mlend, adding non-interest income through secondary market mortgage originations and sales. The Company acquired Mlend on February 1, 2019, and the first quarter of 2019 included only two months of Mlend operations in the 2019 consolidated financial results.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company took proactive measures to strengthen and add liquidity to the balance sheet. The liquidity measures included on-balance sheet funding, which resulted in immediate growth to the balance sheet. The Company also took steps to enhance and expand off-balance sheet, contingent funding avenues through additional credit lines and funding sources for liquidity. The pandemic further introduced uncertainty and volatility to the financial markets. The threat of prolonged unemployment and recession brings increased risk to the balance sheet, especially credit quality, and also impacts potential earnings of the company. The Company has taken, and will continue to take, steps to mitigate the risk by bolstering the loan loss reserve and closely monitoring credit quality. More importantly, the Company continues to work with customers and the community to provide all available resources, including the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), as we continue to work through the crisis and return to normal business operations.

Quarterly Highlights – 1Q20 vs 4Q19

  • Net book value per share increased by $0.28 per share or 1.3% to $21.88. Tangible book value per share increased by $0.27 or 1.3% to $21.13.
  • To increase on-balance sheet liquidity, cash balances were increased by $71.2 million and Investment Security balances increased $8.7 million quarter-over-quarter. Funding for the liquidity was in the form of $47 million in short-term brokered deposits, $30 million in short-term FHLB advances and $26 million in core deposit growth.
  • Net loans grew by $20.7 million or 4.9%, which was funded by strong core deposit growth noted above.
  • The addition of on-balance sheet liquidity, along with Fed rate cuts, pushed net interest margin lower for the quarter to 3.50%, down 12 basis points from 3.62% in Q4 of 2019.
  • Provision expense increased by $96 thousand quarter-over-quarter, which moved the allowance for loan loss to 1.01% of total loans. While charge-off and non-performing assets metrics remained strong and improved quarter-over-quarter, the Company took a proactive approach to strengthen the reserve position given the economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 event.

Quarterly Highlights – 1Q20 vs 1Q19

  • Net book value per share increased by $1.43 per share or 7.0% to $21.88. Tangible book value per share increased by $1.42 or 7.2% to $21.13 on a year-over-year basis.
  • Cash and investment balances were up $58.5 million and $4.4 million, respectively, when compared to Q1 of 2019. The move to add on-balance sheet liquidity, as noted previously, accounts for the increase.
  • Net loans grew by $84.1 million or 23.2% on a year-over-year basis. Much of the growth was in the commercial real estate and C&I sector, which accounted for $68.7 million of the growth while residential real estate and consumer accounted for $13.4 million of the growth.
  • Deposits grew 24.5%, or $102.3 million compared to Q1-2019. Brokered deposits increased $40.1 million year-over-year as part of the on-balance sheet liquidity increase. Excluding brokered deposits, core deposits increased $60.2 million or 15.2% compared to Q1-2019.
  • Similar to quarter-over-quarter net interest margin, year-over-year margin decreased by 10 basis points from 3.60% to 3.50% due to falling asset yields related to Fed rate cuts and the addition of on-balance sheet liquidity.
  • Provision expense increased by $235 thousand compared to Q1-2019. Loan growth and the decision to strengthen the reserve balance, accounts for the increased provision expense.
  • Net interest income grew by $355 thousand in the three months ended March 31, 2020 vs. 2019 due mainly to robust loan growth of over 23% for the period.
  • Non-interest income grew by $565 thousand for the quarter compared to Q1-2019. Strong mortgage sale gains and a full quarter of results from Mlend (acquired 2/1/19) account for the increase.
  • Non-interest expense for Q1-2020 grew by $757 thousand when compared to Q1-2019. A full quarter of operating expenses were recorded for Mlend in 2020, which accounted for approximately $405 thousand of the increase. The additional increase was related to additional employee and data processing costs to support the rapid growth rate of the Company.

A dividend of $0.04 per share was declared by the Board of Directors on April 17, 2020 for stockholders of record as of May 1, 2020 and payable on May 8, 2020.
