IB Marine Bancshares, Inc. Announces 2020 Results
BROOKFIELD, Wis., Jan. 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CIB Marine Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company” or “CIBM”) (OTCQB: CIBH), the holding company of CIBM Bank, announced its unaudited results of operations and financial condition for the fourth quarter and full year of 2020. Strong mortgage operations and higher net interest income resulted in net income of $2.3 million for the quarter ending December 31, 2020, compared to a loss of $0.4 million for the same period in 2019 and, for the twelve months ending December 31, 2020, net income of $8.2 million compared to $2.0 million for the same period in 2019. Income before taxes for 2020 was $10.9 million compared to $2.5 million for 2019.

A summary of financial results for the quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2020, is attached. Select highlights include:

The tangible book value for the common stock increased 16.6% over the course of 2020 from $44.85 per share at December 31, 2019, to $52.28 per share at December 31, 2020, primarily the result of higher earnings, with improved unrealized net gains on securities and discounts on repurchased preferred stock contributing as well.
The return on average assets and efficiency ratio for the year 2020 were 1.09% and 73% respectively, compared to 0.29% and 89%, respectively, for the same period in 2019.
Net mortgage banking revenue was up 148% from $8.2 million during 2019 to $20.3 million in 2020. Lower interest rates supported a surge in mortgage originations in 2020 resulting in $600 million in residential loans – almost double the $330 million in residential loans originated in 2019. Further, 65% of 2020 residential loan originations were refinance loans, compared to 47% of 2019 originations.
Net interest income was up 15% in 2020 from $19.3 million during 2019 to $22.2 million in 2020. The primary reasons for the increase include: (i) higher average balances in loans held for sale and Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, (ii) a 75 basis point reduction in the cost of interest bearing liabilities due to the lower interest rate environment, and (iii) the collection of principal plus interest on a large non-performing commercial real estate loan.
Expenses were up $5.8 million, from $26.2 million in 2019 to $32.0 million in 2020, primarily as a result of a $5.6 million increase in compensation in the Mortgage Banking Division due to higher mortgage loan production that created a $12.9 million increase in division revenues. Mortgage Division compensation counted for 54% of total compensation in 2020, compared to 41% in 2019. On a combined basis, all other expenses excluding compensation were down $0.2 million for 2020 compared to 2019, primarily the result of lower travel and entertainment and collection expenses.
COVID-19 and the related “Lockdown Recession” resulted in significant volumes of new types of banking activity. CIBM Bank originated approximately 350 government guaranteed PPP loans, totaling $43 million, in 2020. At December 31, 2020, PPP loan balances were paid down to $32 million, primarily by the Small Business Administration (SBA) as a result of loan forgiveness applications filed for borrowers. On average, such forgiveness applications represent 99% of the original loan balance per loan. In 2020, PPP loan fees received from the SBA and deferred were $1.6 million, with $0.8 million accreted into interest income due to level yield accretion over the original weighted average term (approximately two years) and accelerations as a result of $11 million in early payoffs related to loan forgiveness payments, and the remaining $0.8 million in outstanding deferred fees to be recorded into future income. Net of related deferred costs, original and accreted net deferred fees were $1.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, with a remaining $0.5 million of net deferred fees to be recorded in future income. As of December 31, 2020, there were an additional $9 million in PPP loan forgiveness applications being processed, with the majority of the remaining PPP loan forgiveness applications expected to be received in the first half of 2021.
As of December 31, 2020, there were $24.5 million in outstanding loan balances from 31 loans granted a COVID-19 loan payment still in an active deferral period, representing 5% of total outstanding loan portfolio balances. Of the loans with active COVID-19 loan payment deferrals, 37% are from the hospitality industry, 15% are from the recreation and entertainment industry, 8% of the balances are from 1-4 family mortgage loans, and the remainder from a mix of other industries harmed by COVID-19 lockdowns.
Provisions for loan losses were $1.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, compared to $0.8 million for the same period of 2019. The primary reason for the increase is environmental and qualitative factors as well as certain borrower credit deterioration primarily from those industries hardest hit by COVID-19 and the related Lockdown Recession (i.e., restaurants and hospitality).
Non-performing assets, restructured loans, and loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing to total assets and nonaccrual loans to total loans were 0.54% and 0.23%, respectively; compared to 1.35% and 1.09%, respectively, at December 31, 2019. The improvements during 2020 were due to certain loan level improvements including a successful large commercial real estate loan collection.
Mr. J. Brian Chaffin, President and CEO of CIBM, commended his team’s work stating, “Our 2020 results are largely attributable to our staff’s ability to quickly respond to the rapidly changing set of circumstances in 2020 - from nearly doubling mortgage loan production in response to a dramatic increase in demand; to implementing an effective PPP loan program to ensure access to funding for small businesses in our communities; to quickly executing a variety of strategies in response to the lower rate environment in order to reduce the Company’s cost of funds by more than many of our peers; to commercial loan production in excess of pre-COVID19 goals. The Board of Directors and I are extremely proud of the way our team members, both front line and back office, came together to organize, plan, and effectively execute on many different operating fronts as our world seemed to change on a daily basis.”

Looking forward to 2021, he added, “We are focused on meeting the needs of our communities through participation in emerging government economic support plans such as the new PPP program, as well as continuing our “Project Falcon” initiatives geared toward new deposit generation and operating efficiencies. In addition, we will continue to monitor developments at the state and federal level, mindful of the economic uncertainties related to the pandemic and their potential effect on credit quality, as well as new regulations and higher taxes that may be in the offing for 2021 and the years ahead, with possible adverse impact to our clients and banking operations.”

Mr. Chaffin also announced, “Our Chief Credit Officer, Paul Melnick, has announced his intent to retire in 2021 and his successor, Mr. Scott Winkel, assumed the duties of Chief Credit Officer, effective January 1, 2021. As part of our transition plan, Paul will continue assisting the bank as the Director of Special Assets, where he will focus on problem loan work-outs and coordinate a smooth transition of the Credit Administration function.” Mr. Chaffin continued, “Scott joined CIBM Bank in 2020 with more than 25 years of banking and credit administration experience. We are delighted to welcome him to our executive management team and fortunate to have someone with his knowledge and familiarity with our banking markets on board. Over the next six months, Scott and Paul will be working closely to ensure long-term, consistent performance and maintain our strong credit culture.”
