MCLEAN, Va., April 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern National Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. (NASDAQ: SONA) ("Southern National" or the "Company"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary Sonabank (the "Bank"), today announced net income of $6.0 million after a nonrecurring other loss and related legal expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $8.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.  Earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were $0.25 basic and diluted after the nonrecurring other loss and related legal expense compared to $0.34 basic and diluted, for the same period in 2018.  Excluding the nonrecurring other loss and related legal expense, earnings would be $8.9 million or $0.37 per share, basic and diluted, for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.09 per share payable on May 24, 2019 to shareholders of record on May 13, 2019.  This is Southern National's thirtieth consecutive quarterly dividend. 

Highlights for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 include:

  • In the first quarter of 2019, the Company had a nonrecurring other loss of $3.2 million and related legal expense of $502 thousand.
  • Loans outstanding of $2.16 billion at March 31, 2019 are down $20.6 million, or -1.32% annualized, since December 31, 2018.  Unanticipated large loan payoffs of $50.0 million were partially offset by growth of $29.4 million during the quarter.  Net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was 3.41% compared to 3.66% for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 3.82% for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  During the first quarter, the combination of large loan payoffs and deposit fluctuations resulted in an unusually high average of $90.3 million in cash which decreased the net interest margin by 8 basis points.
  • Asset quality remains high as demonstrated by the 0.26% ratio of nonperforming assets, net of SBA guarantees, to total assets at March 31, 2019;
  • Total deposits of $2.11 billion at March 31, 2019 have increased $13.5 million since December 31, 2018 or 0.86% annualized. The Bank's net loan-to-deposit ratio improved to 101.62% down from 110.63% a year ago;
  • Tangible book value per share of $10.06 at March 31, 2019 has increased 10.67% since a year ago;
  • Southern National is well capitalized at March 31, 2019 with a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of approximately 12.23%;
  • A gain on our investment in Southern Trust Mortgage, LLC ("STM") of $18 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to a loss of ($317) thousand the year before; and

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $21.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 compared to $22.5 million for the first quarter of 2018, which is a direct result of the rising costs of funds including deposits and borrowings.

Net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was 3.41% compared to 3.66% for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 3.82% for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The combination of large loan payoffs and deposit fluctuations resulted in an unusually high average of $90.3 million in cash which decreased the net interest margin by 8 basis points for the first quarter of 2019. The Company's cost of funds increased 63 basis points to 1.61% since March 31, 2018 due to rising interest rates and competition for deposits.

The acquired loan discount accretion on loans acquired in the acquisitions of Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. ("EVBS"), Greater Atlantic Bank, HarVest and Prince Georges Federal Savings Bank contributed $816 thousand to net interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $1.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The decrease in accretion is due to the slowdown in acquired loan prepayments and payoffs.

Noninterest Income

During the first quarter of 2019, Southern National has noninterest income of $3.1 million compared to $3.1 million during the first quarter of 2018.  Income improved on account maintenance and deposit service fees by $279 thousand.  Income from bank-owned life insurance increased due to the purchase of an additional $12.0 million in bank-owned life insurance during 2018.  Gain on our investment in STM increased to $18 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to a loss of ($317) thousand the year before due to strengthened management and operational improvements within STM. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, other noninterest income has benefited, from $591 thousand of recoveries of legacy investment securities and loans charged off by EVBS premerger compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $16.3 million during the first quarter of 2019 compared to $13.6 million during the same period in 2018. The primary increase in noninterest expense was due to a nonrecurring other loss of $3.2 million with related legal expense of $502 thousand during the first quarter of 2019.  Employee compensation and benefits expense totaled $5.8 million for the first quarter of 2019, as compared to $6.8 million for the same period of 2018 due to a reduction in staffing. Occupancy and equipment expenses remain flat. The Company recognized a gain of $2 thousand on the sale of other real estate owned ("OREO") during the first quarter of 2019 compared to a $(200) thousand loss for the first quarter of 2018. In other expenses, miscellaneous lending and collection expenses are up $159 thousand.  FDIC insurance is $0 for the first quarter as Sonabank is eligible for $643 thousand worth of small bank assessment credits that will be applied towards current and future assessments in periods where the FDIC insurance reserve ratio exceeds 1.38%. 

Securities Portfolio

Investment securities totaled $246.8 million at March 31, 2019 and represent 9.13% of total assets.  Southern National utilizes its securities portfolio to augment income and manage its interest rate risk while serving as a source of liquidity.  As a result of excess cash liquidity, $15 million of securities were purchased in the first quarter of 2019.  No securities were purchased or sold during 2018.

Loan Portfolio

Loan growth during the first quarter of 2019 was $29.4 million, but offset by $50.0 million of unanticipated loan payoffs, bringing total loans to $2.16 billion at March 31, 2019.
