Macatawa Bank Corporation Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

HOLLAND, Mich., April 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Macatawa Bank Corporation (NASDAQ: MCBC), the holding company for Macatawa Bank (collectively, the “Company”), today announced its results for the first quarter 2021.

• Net income of $7.8 million in first quarter 2021 versus $6.4 million in first quarter 2020 – up 21%
• No provision for loan losses taken in the first quarter 2021 versus $700,000 taken in the first quarter 2020
• Net interest margin decreased 92 basis points to 2.33% for the first quarter 2021 compared to the first quarter 2020 reflecting a significant increase in on-balance sheet liquidity and previous decreases in the federal funds rate
• Growth in non-interest income of $1.5 million (32%) from first quarter 2020 driven by increased gains on sales of mortgage loans
• Loan portfolio balances down by $12.4 million (1%) from first quarter 2020
• Deposit balances up by $682.6 million (40%) from first quarter 2020
• Capital and liquidity levels increased further during the quarter and remain strong
  

The Company reported net income of $7.8 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in the first quarter 2021 compared to $6.4 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, in the first quarter 2020.

"We are pleased to report good results for the first quarter of 2021 despite continuing challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Ronald L. Haan, President and CEO of the Company. “We remain focused on serving the financial needs of our customers and our community as evidenced by our continuing participation in the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) after Congress approved a third round of lending under the program. We originated 747 additional PPP loans totaling $96.9 million in the first quarter 2021. The loans were distributed to many local small businesses in order to protect jobs and allow continued paychecks to employees in those companies.   

Despite a challenging environment, we produced $7.8 million in earnings for the first quarter of 2021. Mortgage gains in the first quarter of 2021 were over three times the level achieved in the same period a year ago and offset much of the reduction in net interest income caused by the decrease in market interest rates in 2020. Our asset quality has been resilient and, as a result, no provision for loan losses was necessary in the first quarter of 2021. Those items, coupled with our disciplined approach to managing our expenses caused the 21 percent increase in net income in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020.”

Mr. Haan concluded: "We continue to monitor challenges relating to the impact of COVID-19 on our customers and our business. We are encouraged by the distribution of vaccines and additional economic stimulus and look forward to eventually returning to a more normal operating environment.   In the meantime, we are working to further support the communities we serve and believe our strong balance sheet should provide the strength and stability to weather the remainder of these difficult times.”

Operating Results
Net interest income for the first quarter 2021 totaled $14.5 million, a decrease of $2.0 million from the fourth quarter 2020 and a decrease of $813,000 from the first quarter 2020. Net interest margin for the first quarter 2021 was 2.33 percent, down 36 basis points from the fourth quarter 2020, and down 92 basis points from the first quarter 2020. Net interest income for the first quarter 2021 benefitted from amortization of $2.0 million in fees from loans originated under the PPP. Amortization of such fees were $3.2 million in the fourth quarter 2020. These fees are amortized over the loans’ contractual maturity, which is 24 months or 60 months, as applicable. Upon SBA forgiveness, the remaining unamortized fees are recognized into interest income. During the first quarter 2021, the Company had approved and received forgiveness disbursements from the SBA on 573 loans with balances totaling $71.7 million. Net interest margin was negatively impacted in the first quarter 2021 versus the first quarter 2020 by our carrying significantly higher balances of federal funds sold due to the significant increase in balances held by depositors throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. These balances, which earn only 10 basis points in interest, increased by $624.0 million, on average, from the first quarter 2020 and caused a 64 basis point decrease in net interest margin in the first quarter 2021. Another significant factor in the 92 basis point decrease in net interest margin from the first quarter 2020 to the first quarter 2021 was the impact of the 150 basis point decrease in the federal funds rate in March 2020. Floor rates established by the Company on its variable rate loans over recent years served to soften the negative impact on net interest income of these federal funds rate decreases. Without these floors, net interest income for the quarter would have been lower than stated by approximately $1.0 million.

Average interest earning assets for the first quarter 2021 increased $79.6 million from the fourth quarter 2020 and were up $640.1 million from the first quarter 2020.   Increases in deposit balances, particularly municipal and business deposits, resulted from these customers holding higher balances throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

Non-interest income decreased $533,000 in the first quarter 2021 compared to the fourth quarter 2020 and increased $1.6 million from the first quarter 2020. Gains on sales of mortgage loans in the first quarter 2021 were down $417,000 compared to the fourth quarter 2020 and were up $1.4 million from the first quarter 2020. The Company originated $47.3 million in mortgage loans for sale in the first quarter 2021 compared to $36.2 million in the fourth quarter 2020 and $29.4 million in the first quarter 2020. Deposit service charges were down $81,000 in the first quarter 2021 compared to the fourth quarter 2020 and were down $118,000 compared to the first quarter 2020. These fees are lower than in recent years due to lower overdraft fees as customers have generally retained higher deposit balances due to uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic and receipt of economic stimulus payments.

Non-interest expense was $11.5 million for the first quarter 2021, compared to $12.0 million for the fourth quarter 2020 and $11.7 million for the first quarter 2020. The largest component of non-interest expense was salaries and benefit expenses. Salaries and benefit expenses were down $181,000 compared to the fourth quarter 2020 and were down $279,000 compared to the first quarter 2020. The decreases compared to the first quarter 2020 were due to a combination of factors, primarily a higher level of salary deferral resulting from PPP loan originations, lower bonus accrual, lower medical insurance costs and lower 401k matching contributions. Partially offsetting this was a higher level of salary and other compensation from staffing changes and merit increases and increased variable based compensation from higher mortgage production.   The table below identifies the primary components of the changes in salaries and benefits between periods.

Dollars in 000s	Q1 2021 to Q4 2020				Q1 2021 To Q1 2020
Salaries and other compensation	$	12,702			$	80,104

Nonperforming asset expenses remained low in the first quarter 2021 at just $32,000 compared to $12,000 in the fourth quarter 2020 and $61,000 in the first quarter 2020. FDIC assessment expense was $170,000 in the first quarter 2021 and $194,000 in the fourth quarter 2020. There was no FDIC assessment expense in the first quarter 2020 as the FDIC assessment credits fully covered the assessment in that quarter. All of the Company’s FDIC assessment credits had been applied by the second quarter 2020, so expense increased. Data processing expenses were down $141,000 in the first quarter 2021 compared to the fourth quarter 2020 and were up $147,000 compared to the first quarter 2020 due to online banking conversion related expenses incurred in the fourth quarter 2020 and higher ongoing online banking expenses due to higher usage by deposit customers. Other categories of non-interest expense were relatively flat compared to the fourth quarter 2020 and the first quarter 2020 due to a continued focus on expense management.

Federal income tax expense was $1.8 million for the first quarter 2021 compared to $1.8 million for the fourth quarter 2020 and $1.4 million for the first quarter 2020. Federal income tax expense for the fourth quarter 2020 benefitted from the reversal of $92,000 deferred tax valuation allowance at the end of 2020. The effective tax rate was 18.5 percent for the first quarter 2021, compared to 16.8 percent for the fourth quarter 2020 and 18.2 percent for the first quarter 2020.

Asset Quality
No provision for loan losses was recorded in the first quarter 2021 compared to an $800,000 provision in the fourth quarter 2020 and $700,000 in the first quarter 2020. Net loan recoveries for the first quarter 2021 were $44,000, compared to fourth quarter 2020 net loan recoveries of $50,000 and first quarter 2020 net loan recoveries of $989,000. At March 31, 2021, the Company had experienced net loan recoveries in twenty-three of the past twenty-five quarters.   Total loans past due on payments by 30 days or more amounted to $217,000 at March 31, 2021, down $364,000 from $581,000 at December 31, 2020 and down $296,000 from $513,000 at March 31, 2020. Delinquency as a percentage of total loans was just 0.02 percent at March 31, 2021, well below the Company’s peer level.

The allowance for loan losses of $17.5 million was 1.26 percent of total loans at March 31, 2021, compared to 1.22 percent of total loans at December 31, 2020, and 1.35 percent at March 31, 2020. The ratio at March 31, 2021 and at December 31, 2020 includes the PPP loans, which are fully guaranteed by the SBA and receive no allowance allocation. The ratio at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 excluding PPP loans was 1.55 percent and 1.45 percent, respectively. The coverage ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans continued to be strong and significantly exceeded 1-to-1 coverage at 33-to-1 as of March 31, 2021.

The CARES Act enacted in the first quarter of 2020 allowed the Company to provide payment relief to borrowers that were current on their loan terms at December 31, 2019 without being required to identify those loans as troubled debt restructurings. The Company granted 726 of these modifications with principal balances totaling $337.2 million, the large majority of which were granted an interest only period of 90 days. Some borrowers were granted a second 90 day modification and a few were granted a third 90 day modification. At March 31, 2021, over 99 percent of the modifications granted had expired and the loans were back to their contractual terms. The table below shows the number of loans and balances that were under such modifications as of the end of the quarter for the dates indicated.

Dollars in 000s	Number of COVID-19 Modifications				Balance of COVID-19 Modifications
March 31, 2020		176			$	87,917
June 30, 2020		599				297,269
September 30, 2020		26				79,894
December 31, 2020		6				2,018
March 31, 2021		5				21,894

At March 31, 2021, the Company's nonperforming loans were $525,000, representing 0.04 percent of total loans. This compares to $533,000 (0.04 percent of total loans) at December 31, 2020 and $7.2 million (0.52 percent of total loans) at March 31, 2020. Nonperforming loans at March 31, 2020 were elevated due to a single commercial loan relationship that was resolved during the second quarter 2020. Other real estate owned and repossessed assets were $2.4 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $2.5 million at December 31, 2020 and $2.6 million at March 31, 2020. Total non-performing assets, including other real estate owned and nonperforming loans, were $2.9 million, or 0.11 percent of total assets, at March 31, 2021. Total nonperforming assets, including other real estate owned and nonperforming loans, decreased by $7.0 million from March 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021.

Assets were elevated at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to customers holding a higher level of deposits during the COVID-19 pandemic, including unused balances from PPP loan proceeds. Total loans were $1.38 billion at March 31, 2021, a decrease of $46.4 million from $1.43 billion at December 31, 2020 and a decrease of $12.4 million from $1.40 billion at March 31, 2020.

Commercial loans increased by $66.4 million from March 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021, offset by a decrease of $58.8 million in the residential mortgage portfolio, and a decrease of $20.0 million in the consumer loan portfolio.

Bank owned life insurance was $42.2 million at March 31, 2021, down $272,000 from $42.5 million at December 31, 2020 and down $167,000 from $42.4 million at March 31, 2020 due to earnings on the underlying investments offset by the distribution of $560,000 from a death claim during the first quarter 2021.

Total deposits were $2.39 billion at March 31, 2021, up $89.4 million, or 3.9 percent, from $2.30 billion at December 31, 2020 and were up $682.6 million, or 40.0 percent, from $1.71 billion at March 31, 2020. Demand deposits were up $10.8 million in the first quarter 2021 compared to the fourth quarter 2020 and were up $540.2 million compared to the first quarter 2020. Money market deposits and savings deposits were up $79.5 million from the fourth quarter 2020 and were up $183.7 million from the first quarter 2020. Certificates of deposit were down $872,000 at March 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020 and were down $41.3 million compared to March 31, 2020 as customers reacted to changes in market interest rates. As deposit rates have dropped, the Company has experienced some shifting between deposit types and, overall, deposit customers are holding higher levels of liquid deposit balances in the low interest rate environment and due to uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company continues to be successful at attracting and retaining core deposit customers. Customer deposit accounts remain insured to the highest levels available under FDIC deposit insurance.

The Company's total risk-based regulatory capital ratio at March 31, 2021 was higher than the ratios at both December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020. Macatawa Bank’s risk-based regulatory capital ratios continue to be at levels considerably above those required to be categorized as “well capitalized” under applicable regulatory capital guidelines. As such, the Bank was categorized as "well capitalized" at March 31, 2021.
