MANSFIELD, Pa., Oct. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Citizens Financial Services, Inc. (OTC Pink: CZFS), parent company of First Citizens Community Bank, released today its unaudited consolidated financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Covid 19 pandemic response and loan profile

  • During 2021, the Company participated in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) for loans provided under the auspices of the Small Business Administration (SBA). As of September 30, 2021, 267 loans with a balance of $20.8 million remain outstanding under this program. From January 1, 2021 to September 30, 2021, we issued 388 loans with aggregate balances of $24.3 million. As of September 30, 2021, 26 loans that were issued under this program in 2020 remain outstanding and have a balance of $2.9 million. The loans earn interest at 1% per annum and the processing fee paid by the SBA will be accreted into income over the life of the loans. The SBA has issued guidance for forgiveness with a streamlined approach for loans of $150,000 or less. Of the PPP loans outstanding, 226 loans, or 84.6% of the remaining PPP loans, had an original balance less than $150,000. The outstanding balance for these 226 loans as of September 30, 2021 was approximately $7.1 million.

  • Under our COVID loan modification program, during 2021 we provided relief to 19 customers with outstanding balances of $26.7 million, which includes residential, commercial and agricultural customers. As of September 30, 2021, all loans had returned to their original terms that were modified under this program.

  • The Company tracks industry concentrations to identify risks that could lead to additional credit exposure. As a result of the Covid 19 pandemic, the Company has determined that Hotels/Motels, restaurants, and amusement/theme parks represent a higher level of credit risk. At September 30, 2021, the Company had limited loan concentrations to these industries as follows:
    • Hotels/Motels - $73.3 million or 5.1% of outstanding loans
    • Restaurants - $25.3 million or 1.8% of outstanding loans
    • Amusement/Theme parks - $9.4 million, or 0.7% of outstanding loans

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared to 2020

  • For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net income totaled $22,174,000 which compares to net income of $17,876,000 for the first nine months of 2020, an increase of $4,298,000 or 24.0%. Basic earnings per share of $5.62 for the first nine months of 2021 compares to $4.69 for the first nine months last year. Annualized return on equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was 14.66% and 13.85%, while annualized return on assets was 1.49% and 1.43%, respectively.

  • Net interest income before the provision for loan loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 totaled $49,243,000 compared to $45,646,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, resulting in an increase of $3,597,000, or 7.9%. Average interest earning assets increased $312.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the assets acquired as part of the MidCoast acquisition in the second quarter of 2020 being outstanding for the entire period of 2021 and organic growth primarily in the Delaware region. Average loans increased $158.1 million while average investment securities increased $82.1 million. The yield on interest earning assets decreased 55 basis points to 3.94%, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 17 basis points to 0.51%. The yield on interest earning assets in 2020 benefitted approximately $820,000, or 5 basis points from the pay-off of two purchase credit impaired loans acquired as part of The First National Bank of Fredericksburg acquisition in 2015. The decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was due to the Federal Reserve rate cuts made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020. The tax effected net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was 3.55% compared to 3.96% for the same period last year.

  • The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $1,550,000 compared to $1,500,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $50,000. The increase in the provision is attributable to loans maturing that were acquired as part of the MidCoast acquisition, which were refinanced with the Company and are subject to the Company's allowance calculation.

  • Total non-interest income was $9,793,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, which is $2,335,000 more than the non-interest income of $7,458,000 for the same period last year. The primary drivers were the earnings of bank owned life insurance, which increased $1,129,000 as the result of the passing of two former employees, an increase in equity security gains of $564,000 as a result of market performance and an increase in service charge income of $372,000 as a result of waiving fees in 2020 in response to the pandemic.

  • Total non-interest expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 totaled $30,667,000 compared to $30,026,000 for the same period last year, which is an increase of $641,000. The primary driver of the increase was salary and benefit costs and occupancy costs, which increased compared to the same period in 2020 due to the additional headcount and branches acquired as part of the MidCoast acquisition.

  • The provision for income taxes increased $943,000 when comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to the same period in 2020 as a result of an increase in income before income tax of $5,241,000. The effective tax rate was 17.3% and 17.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. It should be noted the earnings on bank owned life insurance are exempt from federal income tax.

Third Quarter of 2021 Compared to the Third Quarter of 2020

  • For the three months ended September 30, 2021, net income totaled $7,064,000 which compares to net income of $8,007,000 for the comparable period of 2020, a decrease of $943,000 or 11.9%. Basic earnings per share of $1.79 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compares to $2.02 for the 2020 comparable period. Annualized return on equity for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was 13.65% and 17.36%, while annualized return on assets was 1.40% and 1.75%, respectively.

  • Net interest income before the provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 totaled $16,590,000 compared to $16,470,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, resulting in an increase of $120,000. Average interest earning assets increased $202.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period last year as a result of the organic loan and deposit growth. Average loans increased $66.3 million while average investment securities increased $95.1 million and average interest bearing cash holdings increased $43.4 million. The tax effected net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was 3.47% compared to 3.88% for the same period last year, which was impacted by the decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets of 49 basis points to 3.83%.

  • The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $400,000, a $150,000 decrease to the comparable period in 2020. The decrease in the provision is attributable to the impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on the local and national economy in the third quarter of 2020.

  • Total non-interest income was $2,852,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, which is $686,000 less than the comparable period last year. The primary drivers were a decrease in the gains on loans sold of $560,000 due to a decrease in the amount of loans sold compared to the third quarter of 2020 and a decrease in other income of $330,000 due to fee income on derivative transactions for customers.

  • Total non-interest expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 totaled $10,400,000 compared to $9,692,000 for the same period last year, which is an increase of $708,000, or 7.3%. The primary driver of the increase was salary and benefit costs, which increased compared to the same period in 2020 due to the additional headcount in the Delaware region. Other expenses increased $318,000 due to computer, data and appraisal expenses.

  • The provision for income taxes decreased $181,000 when comparing the three months ended September 30, 2021 to the same period in 2020 as a result of a decrease in income before income tax of $1,124,000. The effective tax rate was 18.3% and 18.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Balance Sheet and Other Information:

  • At September 30, 2021, total assets were $2.05 billion compared to $1.89 billion at December 31, 2020 and $1.86 billion at September 30, 2020. The loan to deposit ratio as of September 30, 2021 was 82.88% compared to 88.45% as of December 31, 2020 and 87.96% as of September 30, 2020.

  • Available for sale securities of $397.0 million at September 30, 2021 increased $101.9 million from December 31, 2020 and $109.2 million from September 30, 2020. The yield on the investment portfolio decreased from 2.66% to 2.05% on a tax equivalent basis due to securities purchased at a discount that were called in the first quarter of 2020 and purchases made in a lower rate environment in the second half of 2020 and all of 2021.

  • Net loans as of September 30, 2021 totaled $1.43 billion and increased $36.1 million from December 31, 2020 as a result of organic growth in the Delaware market offset by PPP forgiveness.

  • The allowance for loan losses totaled $17,334,000 at September 30, 2021 which is an increase of $1,519,000 from December 31, 2020. The increase is due to recording a provision for loan losses of $1,550,000 and recoveries of $118,000, offset by charge-offs of $149,000. The allowance as a percent of total loans was 1.20% as of September 30, 2021 and 1.13% as of December 31, 2020.

  • Deposits increased $152.1 million from December 31, 2020, to $1.74 billion at September 30, 2021, primarily due to customers holding more cash due to the pandemic and government stimulus funds provided to customers. Brokered CD's decreased $23.8 million. Non-interest-bearing deposits increased $53.3 million due to the PPP program and additional cash holdings by customers.

  • Stockholders' equity totaled $209.0 million at September 30, 2021, compared to $194.3 million at December 31, 2020, an increase of $14.7 million. The increase was attributable to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 totaling $22.2 million, offset by cash dividends totaling $5.5 million and net treasury stock activity of $468,000. As a result of changes in interest rates impacting the fair value of investment securities and derivative instruments, accumulated other comprehensive income, decreased $1.6 million from December 31, 2020.
