DUNMORE, Pa., April 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FNCB Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: FNCB; www.fncb.com), the parent company of Dunmore-based FNCB Bank (the “Bank”), (collectively, "FNCB") today reported net income of $2.7 million, or $0.14 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 38.8%, compared to $4.4 million, or $0.22 per share for the same period of 2022. Lower net interest income and non-interest income, coupled with increases in non-interest expense, were the primary factors leading to the reduction in first quarter 2023 earnings. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the annualized return on average assets and return on average equity was 0.62% and 8.84%, respectively, compared to 1.08% and 11.31%, respectively, for the same period of 2022. FNCB declared and paid dividends to shareholders of common stock of $0.090 per share for the first quarter of 2023, a 20.0% increase, compared to $0.075 per share for the first quarter of 2022.

"The rapid rise in interest rates impacted FNCB’s first quarter profitability as we have started to experience some margin and spread compression," said FNCB President and CEO, Gerard A. Champi. "We remain laser-focused on effective and prudent balance sheet and funding cost management. We continue to believe that FNCB is well positioned with strong asset quality, ample liquidity sources and a solid tangible capital base. Additionally, FNCB’s level of uninsured deposits, at approximately 25% of total deposits, is low compared to our peers. With these strong metrics, we believe FNCB will be able to successfully navigate the many challenges presented by the current economic environment," concluded Champi.
Summary Results
Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis decreased $1.2 million, or 9.1%, to $11.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $13.0 million for the comparable period of 2022, which was caused by an increase in interest expense, partially offset by an increase in tax-equivalent interest income. The increase in both interest expense and tax-equivalent interest income reflected the nine FOMC rate increases beginning March 17, 2022 through March 31, 2023. However, the velocity and magnitude of the actions, coupled with increasing market competition and rate-sensitivity of depositors, has resulted in an acceleration of funding costs over earning-asset yields, causing both margin and spread compression. FNCB’s tax-equivalent net interest margin compressed 57 basis points to 2.78% for the first quarter of 2023 from 3.35% for the same quarter of 2022. Additionally, the net interest spread declined 101 basis points to 2.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from 3.31% for the same three months of 2022. The reduction in margin and spread largely reflected the rapid increases in funding costs that outpaced the increase in yield on average earning assets, comparing the first quarters of 2023 and 2022. On a linked-quarter basis, the tax-equivalent net interest margin declined 54 basis points from 3.32%, and the net interest rate spread declined 74 basis points from 3.01%, for the fourth quarter of 2022. Interest expense increased $6.7 million, to $7.1 million for the first quarter of 2023 from $0.4 million for the same quarter of 2022. The increase was largely caused by higher deposit and borrowing costs, coupled with greater reliance on higher-costing wholesale funding. FNCB’s average deposit costs increased 148 basis points to 1.60% for the first quarter of 2023 compared to 0.12% for the same quarter of 2022, and increased 79 basis points on a linked-quarter basis from 0.81% for the fourth quarter of 2022. Average borrowed funds, specifically advances through the FHLB of Pittsburgh, increased $176.3 million to $223.7 million from $47.3 million comparing the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Moreover, the average cost of borrowed funds increased 417 basis points to 4.86% for the first quarter of 2023 from 0.69% for the same quarter of 2022. Conversely, average interest-bearing deposits decreased $14.9 million, or 1.3%, to $1.097 billion from $1.112 billion, comparing the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively, which was due primarily to cyclical trends of FNCB’s municipal deposit customers. FNCB did experience some deposit migration from non-maturity deposits and non-interest-bearing deposits into time deposits, as customers are becoming increasingly rate-sensitive. Average interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $112.5 million, or 13.6%, to $714.0 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $826.5 million for the same quarter of 2022. Additionally, non-interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $20.9 million, or 6.8%, to $288.0 million for the first quarter of 2023 from $308.9 million for the respective quarter of 2022. Conversely, average time deposits increased $95.0 million, or 65.7%, to $239.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $144.7 million for the same three months of 2022, which reflected special certificate of deposit rate promotions during the first quarter. Tax-equivalent interest income increased $5.5 million, or 40.9%, to $18.9 million from $13.4 million comparing the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, which largely reflected higher earning-asset yields, coupled with an increase in average earning-asset volumes. The tax-equivalent yield on average earning assets increased 100 basis points to 4.45% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from 3.45% for the same three months of 2022. Specifically, the tax-equivalent yield on the loan portfolio increased 108 basis points to 5.16% for the first quarter of 2023 from 4.08% for the same quarter of 2022. In addition, the tax-equivalent yield on the investment portfolio increased 58 basis points to 2.98% for the first quarter of 2023 from 2.40% for the same quarter of 2022. With regard to asset volumes, total average earning assets increased $144.3 million, or 9.3%, to $1.703 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $1.559 billion for the same three months of 2022. Specifically, average total loans and leases increased $136.6 million, or 13.7%, to $1.137 billion for the first quarter of 2023 from $1.000 billion for the same quarter of 2022, which was largely due to strong organic loan demand, the new commercial equipment finance product offering and the acquisition of third-party originated loan pools. In addition, total securities averaged $549.2 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $8.1 million, or 1.5%, from $541.0 million for the first quarter of 2022.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, non-interest income decreased $119 thousand, or 6.6%, to $1.7 million from $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The reduction in non-interest revenue was largely due to unrealized net losses recognized on equity securities, coupled with decreases in merchant services revenue and other income. Stock volatility in the financial service sector during first quarter of 2023 resulted in net unrealized losses of $508 thousand on equity securities of other financial institutions for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $125 thousand in losses on equity securities recorded for the same quarter of 2022. Merchant services totaled $161 thousand for the first quarter of 2023, a decrease of $38 thousand, or 19.1%, from $199 thousand for the same three-month period of 2022. Other income decreased $106 thousand to $237 thousand for the first quarter of 2023 from $343 thousand for the respective quarter of 2022. These reductions were slightly offset by increases in net gains on the sale of available-for-sale debt securities that totaled $162 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023. There were no gains recognized on the sale of available-for-sale securities in the first quarter of 2022. In addition, BOLI income increased $52 thousand, or 36.0%, to $197 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $145 thousand for the comparable period of 2022, due to the purchase of additional BOLI policies in 2022. While, loan-related fees, specifically servicing revenue, increased $62 thousand, or 108.5%, to $119 thousand, compared to $57 thousand for the same three months of 2022.
Non-interest expense increased $377 thousand, or 4.4%, to $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which primarily reflected increases in salaries and employee benefits and other non-interest expenses. Salaries and employee benefits increased $737 thousand, or 15.8%, to $5.4 million for the first quarter of 2023 from $4.7 million for the same quarter of 2022, which primarily reflected higher full-time salaries and benefits associated with staff additions, in addition to increases in starting salaries and salary ranges, to stay competitive in attracting and retaining qualified staff. Comparing the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, other operating expenses increased $253 thousand, or 28.8%, which was largely due to increases in correspondent bank charges and servicing costs associated with purchased loan pools. These increases were partially offset by decreases in the provision for unfunded commitments, occupancy and equipment expense, data processing expenses and professional fees. During the first quarter of 2023, FNCB recorded a credit to the provision for unfunded commitments of $269 thousand, a decrease of $317 thousand, compared to a provision for unfunded commitments of $48 thousand for the comparable quarter of 2022. Occupancy and equipment expenses, decreased $27 thousand and $52 thousand, respectively, comparing the first three months of 2023 and 2022. Data processing expenses decreased $65 thousand, or 6.1%, to $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $1.1 million for the same three-month period in 2022. Professional fees totaled $302 thousand, a $25 thousand, or 7.8% decrease from $327 thousand comparing the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Asset Quality
As of January 1, 2023, FNCB adopted ASU 2016-13, commonly referred to as Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL"), which requires financial assets (or a group of financial assets) to be measured at amortized cost basis and to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, which will replace the current loss impairment methodology under GAAP. In applying the modified-retrospective method upon adoption of CECL, FNCB recorded the following adjustments on January 1, 2023, a decrease to the allowance for currently losses ("ACL") of $2.6 million, a decrease to deferred tax assets of $287 thousand, an increase to the reserve for unfunded commitments of $1.3 million, and an increase to retained earnings of $1.1 million.
FNCB’s asset quality remained favorable through the first quarter of 2023, as total non-performing loans decreased $0.1 million, or 4.1%, to $2.7 million at March 31, 2023, representing 0.23% of total loans and leases, at March 31, 2023, from $2.8 million, or 0.25% of total loans and leases, at December 31, 2022. Year-over-year, non-performing loans decreased $1.2 million, or 31.3%, from $3.9 million, or 0.37% of total loans, at March 31, 2022. FNCB’s loan delinquency rate (total delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans) decreased to 0.40% at March 31, 2023, compared to 0.45% at December 31, 2022, and 0.55% at March 31, 2022. FNCB recorded a provision for credit losses of $975 thousand for the first quarter of 2022 compared to a provision of $759 thousand for the same quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in loan and lease volumes. The allowance for credit losses was $12.3 million, or 1.06% of total loans and leases, at March 31, 2023, which included a $2.6 million adjustment to the ACL on loans, related to the adoption of CECL, as mentioned above. At December 31, 2022, allowance for loan and lease losses was $14.2 million, or 1.26% of total loans and leases.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $64.0 million, or 3.7%, to $1.809 billion at March 31, 2023, from $1.746 billion at December 31, 2022. The change in total assets primarily reflected increases in loans and leases, net of the ACL, and cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by decreases in available-for-sale debt securities. Loans and leases, net of the ACL, increased $41.4 million, or 3.3%, to $1.152 billion at March 31, 2023, from $1.110 billion at December 31, 2022. Increases were experienced across the commercial and industrial and state and political subdivision loans, which primarily reflected commercial equipment financing originations. Cash and cash equivalents increased $27.7 million, or 66.0%, to $69.6 million at March 31, 2023, from $41.9 million at December 31, 2022. While, available-for-sale debt securities decreased $3.0 million, or 0.6%, to $473.0 million at March 31, 2023, from $476.0 million at December 31, 2022. Total deposits increased $42.7 million, or 3.0%, to $1.463 billion at March 31, 2023, from $1.421 billion at December 31, 2022. Following destabilization in the financial services industry, FNCB secured liquidity through the brokered deposit market. Additionally, FNCB experienced migration from non-maturity deposits, non-interest-bearing and interest-bearing demand and savings deposits, into time deposits due to several certificate of deposit rate-specials offered. Total non-maturity deposits decreased $158.4 million, or 12.5%, to $1.104 billion at March 31, 2023 from $1.263 billion at December 31, 2022. Total time deposits increased $201.1 million, or 127.4%, to $359.0 million at the end of the first quarter of 2023 from $157.9 million at December 31, 2022. Included in time deposits at March 31, 2023 were brokered deposits of $141.9 million, an increase of $118.0 million from $23.9 million at December 31, 2022. Total borrowed funds increased $14.3 million to $196.7 million at March 31, 2023, from $172.0 million at December 31, 2022, which was entirely due to additional advances through the FHLB of Pittsburgh.
Total shareholders’ equity increased $7.6 million, or 6.3%, to $126.5 million at March 31, 2023, from $118.9 million at December 31, 2022. The increase in capital was primarily due to market value appreciation of FNCB’s available-for-sale debt securities, net of deferred taxes, which resulted in a $5.4 million decrease in the accumulated other comprehensive loss to $42.6 million at March 31, 2023, compared to an accumulated other comprehensive loss of $48.0 million at December 31, 2022. Also impacting capital was net income of $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, partially offset by $1.8 million in dividends declared and paid for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Tangible book value was $6.43 per share at March 31, 2023, compared to $6.04 per share at December 31, 2022, reflecting the increase in fair value of available-for-sale securities. FNCB Bank was considered well capitalized with total risk-based capital and Tier 1 leverage ratios of 12.97% and 8.96%, respectively, at March 31, 2023, and 13.10% and 8.77%, respectively, at December 31, 2022.
