WALDORF, Md., April 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Community Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: TCFC) (the “Company”), the holding company for Community Bank of the Chesapeake (the “Bank”), today reported net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 of $7.3 million, or $1.30 per diluted common share. This compares to net income of $7.6 million, or $1.35 per diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2022, and net income of $6.3 million or $1.10 per diluted common share for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.
First Quarter 2023 Highlights
- Stable Financial Performance: Net income totaled $7.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, or $1.30 per diluted common share compared to net income of $6.3 million or $1.10 per diluted common share for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and $7.6 million or $1.35 per diluted common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2022.
Return on average assets ("ROAA"), return on average common equity ("ROACE") and return on average tangible common equity ("ROATCE") were 1.21%, 15.10% and 16.19% respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 1.08%, 12.30% and 13.22% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. ROAA, ROACE and ROATCE were 1.28%, 16.61% and 17.88% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
- Merger with Shore Bancshares: On December 14, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to undertake a merger of equals pursuant to which the Company and Bank will merge into Shore Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHBI) ("Shore") in an all-stock transaction. The combined company will have total assets of approximately $6.0 billion on a pro forma basis. Under the terms of the agreement, which was unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies and which remains subject to shareholder approval, as well as the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, holders of TCFC common stock will have the right to receive 2.3287 shares of SHBI common stock.
On March 7, 2023 SHBI and TCFC announced that they received the required regulatory approvals from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Maryland Office of the Commissioner of Financial Regulation. SHBI and TCFC expect that the merger transaction will close on or about July 1, 2023. James M. Burke, TCFC’s current President and Chief Executive Officer, will serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company.
The Company incurred $1.0 million of merger and acquisition costs during the year ended December 31, 2022, $0.3 million during the first quarter of 2023 and anticipates additional expenses in 2023. The net impact for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was a decrease to EPS of $0.04 per diluted share and a decrease to ROAA of five basis points. The resulting non-GAAP diluted EPS and non-GAAP ROAA were $1.34 and 1.25%, respectively.
- Net Interest Margin Compression: Net interest margin decreased to 3.32% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from 3.64% for the fourth quarter of 2022, due, primarily to increasing cost of funds. During the first quarter of 2023, loan and overall interest-earning asset yields increased 19 and 24 basis points to 5.11% and 4.74% from 4.92% and 4.50% for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The Company’s cost of funds increased 59 basis points for the comparable three month period from 0.89% to 1.48%.
Management anticipates that the cost on interest-bearing deposit accounts will continue to increase more quickly than the yield on loans and investments in the first six months of 2023, which could compress net interest margin to between 3.10% and 3.40% in the first half of 2023.
- Stable Funding and Liquidity: Total funding, which includes deposits and FHLB advances, increased $8.4 million from $2,167.5 million at December 31, 2022 to $2,175.8 million at March 31, 2023. During the first quarter of 2023, a small decrease in retail deposits of $27.6 million was offset by an increase in wholesale funding of $35.9 million.
The Bank’s uninsured deposits at March 31, 2023 were $394 million or 18.3% of total deposits. Uninsured deposits include amounts either greater than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s ("FDIC") $250,000 insurance limit or amounts not secured by the market value of collateral.
At March 31, 2023, the Bank had approximately $762 million of available liquidity including: $27 million in cash, $652 million in secured borrowing capacity at the FHLB and the Federal Reserve, and $82 million in unsecured lines of credit.
- Moderating Loan Growth: Total portfolio loans increased to $1,844.3 million at March 31, 2023, an increase of $23.3 million or 5.1% annualized, compared to December 31, 2022. The loan pipeline at March 31, 2023 was $85.0 million. Management anticipates 2023 loan growth of between four and six percent.
Goals for lenders and business development teams have been aligned to build on 2022 progress in acquiring customer operating deposit accounts which should contribute to building franchise-enhancing relationships with customers while mitigating potential margin compression from the use of more costly non-core funding sources.
- Stable Asset Quality: Non-accrual loans, OREO and loan modifications to borrowers’ experiencing financial difficulties ("BEFDs") were $8.1 million or 0.33% of total assets at March 31, 2023 compared to $6.5 million or 0.27% of total assets at December 31, 2022, and $7.9 million or 0.34% at March 31, 2022. Classified assets increased $2.0 million to $8.1 million at March 31, 2023 from $6.1 million at December 31, 2022.
Management Commentary
“The first quarter was a strong start to the year, despite the well-publicized challenges to the industry,” stated James M. Burke, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Community Financial Corporation. “While increasing deposit costs compressed margins, profitability remained very strong, thanks in part to our continued focus on non-interest expenses. We continue to operate with ample liquidity, solid capital, excellent credit, and a stable deposit base that is well-diversified among consumer and commercial clients.”
Burke continued, “Our merger of equals with Shore Bancshares continues on schedule and is expected to close around the first week of July. The combined bank, with its greater scale, diversification and resources, will be better positioned to manage risks and provide existing and new customers with new products and services.”

Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the comparable quarters increased primarily from increases in interest-earning asset yields for loans and investments and growth in loans, partially offset by increased interest expense from higher funding costs. Net interest margin of 3.32% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased 20 basis points from 3.12% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and decreased 32 basis points from 3.64% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
Loan interest income increased $7.5 million to $23.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $15.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Investment income increased $2.4 million to $4.1 million from $1.7 million for the comparable periods. Interest expense increased $7.3 million to $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Interest-bearing deposits costs increased $6.2 million to $6.7 million and debt and borrowings costs increased $1.1 million to $1.5 million for the comparable periods.
Net interest margin compressed during the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to the Bank’s cost of funding increasing at a faster rate than interest-earning asset yields. In the Company’s 2022 10-K, management communicated expectations that interest-bearing deposit accounts would reprice faster than loans and investments in the first six months of 2023 based on late fourth quarter 2022 trends and provided guidance that margins could compress to between 3.10% and 3.40% in the first half of 2023. The overall expectation is that margin will continue to contract in the second quarter, but at a slower rate than the first quarter of 2023.
During the first quarter average yields on interest-earning assets increased to 4.74% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from 3.28% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 4.50% for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The Company’s cost of funds was 1.48% during the first quarter of 2023, 0.89% for the prior quarter and 0.17% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The average cost of funds increased 61 basis points from 1.06% for the month of December 2022 to 1.67% for the month of March 2023. For the same comparative periods, average interest-earning asset yields increased 18 basis points from 4.66% to 4.84%.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income was flat at $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The similar performance for the comparable periods was due to decreases in loan appraisal charges and interest rate protection referral fee income, offset by higher service charge income and a $0.3 million decrease in unrealized losses in the first quarter of 2023 on securities invested in a Community Reinvestment Act mutual fund. Noninterest income as a percentage of average assets was 0.24% and 0.25%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense of $10.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased $1.1 million or 12.0% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. Management expects a $10.1-$10.3 million normalized quarterly expense run rate, excluding merger related costs, during 2023. The Company incurred merger and acquisition costs of $1.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, $0.3 million during the first quarter of 2023 and anticipates additional expenses in 2023.
The increase from the comparable period was primarily due to increases of $0.4 million in compensation and benefits, $0.3 million in merger and acquisition costs, $0.1 million in occupancy expense, $30,000 in data processing, $0.1 million in professional fees as well as an increase in other operating expenses of $0.1 million. Professional fees, occupancy and data processing have increased substantially compared to the same quarter in the prior year due in large part to increased cost of labor and materials due to inflation. Compensation and benefits increased in the second half of 2022 with the Company’s decision to increase base compensation to address local wage pressure caused by inflation and to attract and retain our employees. Additionally, the occupancy costs increased during the second half of 2022 with the opening of a new branch in Fredericksburg – Harrison Crossing, Virginia.
The Company’s efficiency ratio was 49.57% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 50.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Company’s net operating expense ratio was 1.44% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 1.31% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The efficiency and net operating expense ratios have improved (decreased) over the last four years as the Company improved asset quality and increased operating revenues while controlling expenses.
Income Tax Expense
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 24.42% compared to an effective tax rate of 25.33% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Company’s effective tax rate decreased due to a decrease in the state tax apportionment percentage.
Balance Sheet
Assets
Total assets increased $18.5 million, or 0.8%, to $2.43 billion at March 31, 2023 compared to total assets of $2.41 billion at December 31, 2022, primarily due to net loan growth. During the first quarter of 2023, total net loans increased 5.0% annualized or $22.3 million from $1,798.5 million at December 31, 2022 to $1,820.8 million at March 31, 2023. The Company’s loan pipeline was $85.0 million at March 31, 2023. Available for sale ("AFS") debt securities, which are reported at fair value, increased $1.2 million to $463.9 million, primarily due to a decrease in unrealized losses in the first quarter of 2023 from changes in interest rates. These increases in assets were offset by a decrease in deferred tax assets of $2.7 million to $21.9 million primarily due to decreases in unrealized losses from changes in interest rates of the Bank’s AFS investment portfolio. FHLB stock held decreased $2.4 million to $2.2 million due to a reduction in advances from $79.0 million at December 31, 2022 to $21.5 million at March 31, 2023. Other assets decreased $1.8 million to $0.9 million due to a decrease in income taxes receivable, partially offset by increases in prepaid expenses.
Non-owner occupied commercial real estate ("CRE") loans as a percentage of risk-based capital at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $1,054.6 million or 379% and $1,032.6 million or 381%, respectively. Construction loans as a percentage of risk-based capital at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $134.4 million or 48% and $135.0 million or 50%, respectively.
The Bank’s office CRE portfolio, which included owner-occupied and non-owner occupied CRE loans, was $386.6 million or 20.96% of total loans of $1,844.3 million at March 31, 2023, which included $127.1 million or 32.9% with medical tenants and $64.8 million or 16.8% with government or government contractor tenants. There were 295 loans in the office CRE portfolio with an average and median loan size of $1.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Loan to Value ("LTV") estimates are less than 70% for $295.0 million or 76.3% of the office CRE portfolio and Debt Service Coverage ("DSC") ratios exceed 1.25x for $320.3 million or 82.9% of the office CRE portfolio at March 31, 2023. For the $91.6 million of loans with LTVs that exceed 70%, $2.2 million have DSC ratios of less than 1.25x.
The Bank had 18 CRE office loans totaling $170.5 million that were greater than $5.0 million at March 31, 2023. For this subset of the office CRE portfolio, at March 31, 2023, the average loan DSC ratio was 1.69x and average LTV was 57.6%. Most buildings in the Bank’s office CRE portfolio are two stories or less with no buildings exceeding five stories.
Funding
Total funding, which includes deposits and FHLB advances, increased $8.4 million from $2,167.5 million at December 31, 2022 to $2,175.8 million at March 31, 2023. During the first quarter of 2023, a small decrease in retail deposits of $27.6 million was offset by an increase in wholesale funding of $35.9 million.
Total deposits increased $65.9 million in first quarter of 2023 from $2,088.5 million at December 31, 2022 to $2,154.3 million at March 31, 2023. Retail deposits, which exclude brokered deposits, decreased $27.6 million during the first quarter from $2,034.0 million at December 31, 2022 to $2,006.4 million at March 31, 2023. The Company’s wholesale funding increased $35.9 million, which includes brokered deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances, from $133.5 million at December 31, 2022 to $169.4 million at March 31, 2023. During the first three months of 2023, non-interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $30.4 million to $599.8 million at March 31, 2023, representing 27.8% of deposits, compared to 30.2% of deposits at December 31, 2022.
The Bank’s deposit cycle generally sees deposit balances decrease in the first and fourth quarters as business customers and municipalities use funds for operating needs and build in the second and third quarters. The Company’s business development efforts continue to focus on increasing non-interest bearing and lower-cost transaction accounts.
The Bank’s uninsured deposits at March 31, 2023 were $394 million or 18.3% of total deposits. Uninsured deposits include amounts either greater than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s ("FDIC") $250,000 insurance limit or amounts not secured by the market value of collateral.
At March 31, 2023, available liquidity of approximately $762 million was 194% of uninsured deposits of $394 million. Available liquidity included $27 million in cash; $652 million borrowing capacity at FHLB and the Federal Reserve’s Borrower in Custody Program ("BIC") in secured collateral (market value availability), and $82 million in unsecured lines of credit.
In March 2023, the Bank enrolled in, but has not used, the Federal Reserve’s Bank Term Funding Program (“BTFP”). Management considers the BTFP facility a source of liquidity and has updated its contingency funding plan and internal liquidity stress tests to consider the facility as an alternative to FHLB available lines of credit.
The Bank monitors large deposit relationships and concentration risks in accordance with FDIC policy. This includes monitoring deposit concentrations and maintaining fund management policies and strategies that take into account potentially volatile concentrations and significant deposits that mature simultaneously. The FDIC defines a large depositor as a customer or entity that owns or controls 2% or more of the Bank’s total deposits. The FDIC’s examination policies require that we monitor all customer deposit concentrations at or above 2% of total deposits. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Bank had two local municipal customer deposit relationships that exceeded 2% of total deposits, totaling $320.9 million and $346.4 million, respectively, which represented 14.9% and 16.6%, respectively, of total deposits. All municipal relationships are secured by FDIC deposit insurance or collateral.
The aggregate amount of our top 25 deposit relationships at March 31, 2023 was $645.5 million, or 26.6% of total assets and $662.9 million, or 27.5% of our total assets at December 31, 2022.
Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Capital
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, total stockholders’ equity increased $11.8 million. The increase in equity was primarily due to an increase in net income of $7.3 million and decrease of $5.2 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") related to the Bank’s AFS securities portfolio due to changes in market interest rates. In addition, equity increased due to stock-based compensation and ESOP activity of $0.2 million. Increases in equity were partially offset by common dividends paid of $0.9 million.
The Company’s common equity to assets ratio increased to 8.19% at March 31, 2023 from 7.76% at December 31, 2022. The Company’s ratio of tangible common equity ("TCE") to tangible assets increased to 7.75% at March 31, 2023 from 7.32% at December 31, 2022 (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules). The TCE ratio increased from the prior quarter due primarily to a similar asset base and $12.5 million in additional stockholders’ equity from decreases in AOCL and first quarter 2023 net income. Regulatory capital is not impacted by AOCL and Tier 1 capital to average asset ratios at the Bank and the Company remained strong at 10.38% and 9.68% at March 31, 2023 compared to 10.33% and 9.60% at December 31, 2022.
Asset Quality
Allowance for credit losses ("ACL") and provision for credit losses ("PCL"); Classified and Non-Performing Assets
On January 1, 2022, the Company early adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaced the incurred loss methodology for determining our ACL with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the CECL. We adopted ASU 2016-13 using the modified retrospective method. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2022, are presented under ASU 2016-13. At adoption, the Company did not hold Held to Maturity ("HTM") investment debt securities. The impact at adoption on January 1, 2022, was an increase to the ACL of $2.5 million, the recording of a reserve for unfunded commitments of $0.2 million, an increase in deferred tax assets of $0.7 million, and a decrease in retained earnings of $2.0 million.
ACL balances increased to 1.27% of portfolio loans at March 31, 2023 compared to 1.26% of portfolio loans at December 31, 2022. At and for the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company’s ACL increased $0.6 million or 2.7% to $23.5 million from $22.9 million at December 31, 2022. The Company recorded a $0.7 million PCL for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $0.5 million PCL for the three months ended March 31, 2022. There were $45,000 in net charge-offs during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $19,000 in net recoveries for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Management believes that the allowance is adequate at March 31, 2023.
Classified assets increased $2.0 million from $6.1 million at December 31, 2022 to $8.1 million at March 31, 2023 due primarily to customer relationships that were current with payments at March 31, 2023, but were showing deterioration in their debt service coverage ratios. Management considers classified assets to be an important measure of asset quality. The Company’s risk rating process for classified loans is an important factor in the Company’s ACL qualitative framework. Management remains committed to expeditiously resolving non-performing or substandard credits that are not likely to become performing or passing credits in a reasonable timeframe.
Non-accrual loans increased $2.0 million from $6.1 million at December 31, 2022 to $8.1 million at March 31, 2023 due primarily to customer relationships that were current with payments at March 31, 2023, but were showing deterioration in their debt service coverage ratios. There were no OREO balances at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The ratio of non-accrual loans and OREO to total portfolio loans and OREO increased 10 basis points from 0.34% at December 31, 2022 to 0.44% at March 31, 2023. The ratio of non-accrual loans, OREO and BEFDs modifications to total assets increased six basis points from 0.27% at December 31, 2022 to 0.33% at March 31, 2023.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES (UNAUDITED)
Pre-Tax Pre-Provision ("PTPP") Income, PTPP Return on Average Assets ("ROAA"), PTPP Return on Average Common Equity ("ROACE"), and Return on Average Tangible Common Equity ("ROATCE")
Management believes that PTPP income, which reflects the Company’s profitability before income taxes and provision credit losses, and exclude merger and acquisition costs and the Infinex equity settlement, allows investors to better assess the Company’s operating income and expenses in relation to the Company’s core operating revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with credit provisions and different state income tax rates for comparable institutions. ROATCE is computed by dividing net earnings applicable to common shareholders by average tangible common shareholders’ equity, and exclude merger and acquisition costs and the Infinex equity settlement. Management believes that ROATCE is meaningful because it measures the performance of a business consistently, whether acquired or internally developed. ROATCE is a non-GAAP measure and may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Management also believes that during a crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic, this information is useful as the impact of the pandemic on the loan loss provisions of various institutions will likely vary based on the geography of the communities served by a particular institution.
