NORTHEAST INDIANA BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2024 EARNINGS

NIDB

HUNTINGTON, Ind., April 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Northeast Indiana Bancorp, Inc., (OTCQB: NIDB), the parent company of First Federal Savings Bank, today announced net income of $722,000 ($0.30 per diluted common share) for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to earnings from the quarter ended March 31, 2023 of $1.17 million ($0.49 per diluted common share). The current three months earnings equate to an annualized return on average assets (ROA) of 0.57% and a return on average equity (ROE) of 6.26% compared to an ROA of 1.04% and an ROE of 10.75% for the prior year quarter ended March 31, 2023.

(PRNewsfoto/Northeast Indiana Bancorp, Inc.)

Total assets increased $10.7 million, or 8.6% on an annualized basis, to $509.4 million at March 31, 2024 compared to total assets of $498.7 million at December 31, 2023. Total loans increased $8.7 million, or 9.4% on an annualized basis, to $379.3 million at March 31, 2024 compared to total loans of $370.7 million at December 31, 2023. Total deposits increased $2.3 million, or 2.3% on an annualized basis, to $403.4 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $401.1 million at December 31, 2023.

Shareholders' equity decreased $131,000 to $46.3 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $46.4 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease in shareholders' equity was a result of the combination of the fair value of the investment portfolio decreasing $471,000 and dividends paid of $413,000 slightly exceeding net income for the first quarter. The book value of NIDB stock decreased $0.10 to $19.05 per common share as of March 31, 2024 compared to $19.15 at December 31, 2023. The number of outstanding common shares was 2,429,698 as of March 31, 2024.

Net interest income decreased $2,000 in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Continued margin pressure saw gains in interest income offset by increases in interest expense. An increase in average earning assets of $51.6 million was countered by a 36 basis point decrease in net interest margin to 2.99% for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023. The decline in net interest margin was primarily due to an increase of 108 basis points in costs of interest-bearing liabilities of 3.10% in the first quarter of 2024 compared to 2.02% in the first quarter of 2023 matched against an increase of 58 basis points in yield on interest earning assets to 5.55% in the first quarter of 2024 compared to 4.97% in the first quarter of 2023.

Provision for loan loss expense of $500,000 in the first quarter of 2024 decreased $280,000 as compared to the previous quarter expense of $780,000. The first quarter expense was a result of the CECL accounting standard's impact related to new growth of the loan portfolio in addition to an increase in specific reserves on existing loans.

Non-interest income declined $75,000 in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily the result of a decline of $30,000 in gain on sale of loans due to slower mortgage volume in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023 and a decline of $65,000 in brokerage fee income with the bank transitioning its investment advisory business to a third-party during the 4th quarter of 2023. Non-interest expense increased $114,000 in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023. In addition to the growth in expenses attributed to a growing balance sheet, the increase in non-interest expense is primarily due to an increase in FDIC deposit insurance premiums of $25,000.
