Branch Optimization and Operational Efficiency Update

In connection with the previously announced branch consolidations and the other branch optimization initiatives, CB anticipates non-recurring pre-tax costs during 2021 in line with the $6.1 million announced in February. This estimated cost excludes the impact of any premium from sale of branches, and assumes no salvage value, lease termination, severance, and other costs associated with the consolidations or sales; however, the Company anticipates some recovery of these costs over time. CB expects an annual reduction in pre-tax operating expenses in 2021 of approximately $1.5 million, along with $3.0 million of ongoing pre-tax cost savings as a result of the implementation of the branch optimization initiatives. The Bank also completed a comprehensive review of its branch network and operating environment to identify solutions to improve operating performance. This review prioritized profitability, efficiency, infrastructure and client experience improvements, automation in operations, and digital marketing and technology investments.

Dividend Information

The Company’s Board of Directors has declared a $0.24 quarterly cash dividend per outstanding share of common stock, payable on or about June 1, 2021, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 21, 2021.

Management Commentary

President and CEO John H. Montgomery stated, “CB reported strong net income of $2.8 million for the first quarter of 2021, largely due to higher noninterest income and improvements in asset quality that included no provisions for loan losses during the period. We are continuing to focus on improving the franchise value in our core market area surrounding Southwestern Pennsylvania as CB remains well positioned for an economic recovery in the region. We improved our commercial real estate loan growth throughout the past several periods, while also growing deposits. Over the course of the year, we intend to invest in our current branch network while moving forward with a branch optimization strategy that will lead to continuing efficiency ratio improvements. The investments made in enhancing our fintech capabilities, including digital and mobile capabilities, will improve CB’s ability to adapt to changing customer needs as we emerge from the pandemic conditions of 2020.”

2021 First Quarter Financial Review

Net Interest and Dividend Income

Net interest and dividend income decreased $556,000, or 5.3%, to $10.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $10.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

• Net interest margin (FTE) (Non-GAAP) decreased 52 basis points (“bps”) to 3.05% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to 3.57% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Net interest margin (GAAP) decreased to 3.04% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to 3.55% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
• Interest and dividend income decreased $1.3 million, or 10.9%, to $11.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $12.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
  • Interest income on loans decreased $618,000, or 5.7%, to $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. While average loans increased $81.2 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, the average yield decreased 57 bps to 4.00%. PPP loans decreased loan yield approximately 5 bps but that was offset by the recognition of $535,000 of net PPP loan origination fees in the current period. The impact of the accretion of the credit mark on acquired loan portfolios was $138,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $76,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, or 6 bps in the current period compared to 3 bps in the prior period.
  • Interest income on taxable investment securities decreased $555,000, or 46.2%, to $646,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 driven by a $35.8 million decrease in average investment securities balances and 93 bps decrease in average yield. The Federal Reserve’s pandemic-driven decision to drop the benchmark interest rate in 2020 resulted in significant calls of U.S. government agency securities and paydowns on mortgage-backed securities in the declining interest rate environment, which were replaced with lower-yielding securities or maintained in cash.
  • Other interest and dividend income, which primarily consists of interest-bearing cash, decreased $140,000, or 58.8% to $98,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $238,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Average other interest-earning assets increased $97.3 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily from buildup of cash as a result of securities activity, PPP loan funds and government stimulus payments deposited with the Bank, although average yield declined 123 bps due to interest rate cuts on interest-earning cash deposits held at other financial institutions.
• Interest expense decreased $785,000, or 43.7%, to $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
  • Interest expense on deposits decreased $734,000, or 43.7%, to $947,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. While average interest-earning deposits increased $42.2 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, interest rate declines for all products driven by pandemic-related interest rate cuts resulted in a 37 bp, or 46.0%, decrease in average cost compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. In addition, average time deposits and the related average cost decreased $28.3 million and 41 bps, respectively.

 Provision for Loan Losses

There was no provision for loan losses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. An $8.3 million decrease in net reservable loans in the current period, which excludes PPP loans, and improving economic and industry condition contributed to the lack of provision in the current period.

Noninterest income

Noninterest income increased $1.3 million, or 69.6%, to $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase was largely due to net gains on securities compared to a net loss in the prior period, as well as an increase in profit-sharing insurance commissions and a $172,000 recapture of temporary impairment on mortgage servicing rights.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased $392,000, or 4.4%, to $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase is primarily from contracted services, which includes the engagement of a third-party workflow optimization expert to assist in implementing robotic process automations and more effective sales management designed to improve operational efficiencies in the near and long-term. In addition, salaries and employee benefits increased primarily due to the recognition in the prior period of a $407,000 one-time benefit from health insurance claims exceeding our stop-loss limit for the 2019 plan year and change from a self-funded to a fully-insured plan.

Statement of Financial Condition Review

Assets

Total assets increased $60.1 million, or 4.2%, to $1.48 billion at March 31, 2021, compared to $1.42 billion at December 31, 2020. The change is primarily due to an increase in Deposits as further described below in the Liabilities section.

• Cash and due from banks increased $69.1 million, or 42.9%, to $230.0 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $160.9 million at December 31, 2020. The change is primarily due to an increase in Deposits as further described below in the Liabilities section.
• Securities decreased $3.2 million, or 2.2%, to $142.2 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $145.4 million at December 31, 2020. Current period activity included $11.0 million of paydowns on mortgage-backed securities, $22.3 million of mortgage-backed securities and U.S. government agency securities purchases, and $11.9 million of mortgage-backed securities sales, which resulted in the recognition of a $225,000 gain on the sale of securities. The sales recognized gains on higher-interest securities with faster prepayment speeds. In addition, there was a $3.1 million decrease in the market value of the debt securities portfolio and a $222,000 gain in market value in the equity securities portfolio, which is primarily comprised of bank stocks.
  

Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) Update

• The Small Business Administration reopened the PPP the week of January 11, 2021 and began accepting applications for both First Draw and Second Draw PPP Loans. As of March 31, 2021, as part of this round of PPP, the Bank funded 156 PPP loans totaling $25.0 million with net deferred origination fees of $984,000. Combined with $19.7 million of loan forgiveness processed in the first quarter of 2021, total PPP loans increased $5.3 million to $60.4 million at March 31, 2021 compared to $55.1 million at December 31, 2020.
• $1.1 million of net PPP loan origination fees were unearned at December 31, 2020. Due to activity in the first quarter of 2021, $1.5 million of net PPP loan origination fees were unearned at March 31, 2021. $535,000 of net PPP loan origination fees were earned in the first quarter of 2021 compared to $604,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2020. 

Loans and Credit Quality

• Total loans decreased $3.1 million to $1.04 billion at March 31, 2021. Excluding the impact of PPP loans, organic loan growth declined $8.3 million.
• The allowance for loan losses was $12.7 million at March 31, 2021 compared to $12.8 million at December 31, 2020. There was no provision for loan losses in the first quarter. An $8.3 million decrease in net reservable loans in the current period, which excludes PPP loans, and improving economic and industry condition contributed to the lack of provision in the current period. As a result, the allowance for loan losses to total loans of 1.22% at March 31, 2021 was comparable to the percentage at December 31, 2020. No allowance was allocated to the PPP loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses to total loans, excluding PPP loans, was 1.30% at March 31, 2021 compared to 1.29% at December 31, 2020.
• Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $46,000, or 0.02% of average loans on an annualized basis, . Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $45,000, or 0.02% of average loans on an annualized basis, . Net charge-offs were primarily attributable to indirect automobile loans in both periods.
• Nonperforming loans, which includes nonaccrual loans, accruing loans past due 90 days or more, and accruing loans that are considered troubled debt restructurings, were $14.3 million at March 31, 2021 compared to $14.5 million at December 31, 2020. Nonperforming loans to total loans ratio was 1.37% at March 31, 2021 compared to 1.39% at December 31, 2020.
• There were 25 loans in forbearance totaling $18.4 million at March 31, 2021 compared to 31 loans totaling $24.1 million at December 31, 2020. This includes two commercial real estate loans totaling $4.6 million and one construction loan totaling $2.0 million that are all secured by hotels, one commercial real estate loan totaling $5.5 million secured by office space and a business relationship that rents equipment, supplies and other materials for events comprised of three commercial real estate loans totaling $3.3 million, and five commercial and industrial loans totaling $1.2 million.

Liabilities

Total liabilities increased $60.9 million, or 4.7%, to $1.34 billion at March 31, 2021 compared to $1.28 billion at December 31, 2020.

Deposits

• Deposits increased $59.9 million to $1.28 billion as of March 31, 2021 compared to $1.22 billion at December 31, 2020. Noninterest bearing demand deposits, NOW accounts and savings accounts increased $36.6 million, $21.1 million and $11.6 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease of $9.3 million in time deposits. IRS and stimulus-related payments totaled $29.9 million in the current quarter and the impact of the PPP loans that were originated in the current quarter and the proceeds of which were initially deposited at the Bank was approximately $23.4 million. Annualized deposit growth rate was 19.6% including PPP loan deposits and 2.2% without IRS and PPP loan deposits, representing organic deposit growth. Average total deposits increased $17.0 million, primarily in noninterest-bearing deposits, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020.

Borrowed Funds

• Short-term borrowings increased $4.3 million, or 10.5%, to $45.4 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $41.1 million at December 31, 2020. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, short-term borrowings were comprised entirely of securities sold under agreements to repurchase. The increase is related to business deposit customers whose funds, above designated target balances, are transferred into an overnight interest-earning investment account by purchasing securities from the Bank’s investment portfolio under an agreement to repurchase.
• Other borrowed funds decreased $2.0 million to $6.0 million at March 31, 2021 due to a Federal Home Loan Bank borrowing that matured in the current period.

   

Stockholders’ Equity

Stockholders’ equity decreased $754,000, or 0.6%, to $133.8 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $134.5 million at December 31, 2020.

Statement About Forward-Looking Statements

Statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts may constitute forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and such forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions contained in the Act. The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the operations and future prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, general and local economic conditions, the scope and duration of economic contraction as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the Company’s business and that of the Company’s customers, changes in market interest rates, deposit flows, demand for loans, real estate values and competition, competitive products and pricing, the ability of our customers to make scheduled loan payments, loan delinquency rates and trends, our ability to manage the risks involved in our business, our ability to control costs and expenses, inflation, market and monetary fluctuations, changes in federal and state legislation and regulation applicable to our business, actions by our competitors, and other factors that may be disclosed in the Company’s periodic reports as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

Given the numerous unknowns and risks that are heavily weighted to the downside as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, our forward-looking statements are subject to the risk that conditions will be substantially different than we are currently expecting. If efforts to contain COVID-19 are unsuccessful and shelter-in-place orders last longer than expected, the recession would be much longer and much more severe and damaging. Ineffective fiscal stimulus, or an extended delay in implementing it, are also major risks. The deeper the recession and the longer it lasts, the more it will damage consumer fundamentals and sentiment. This could both prolong the recession and make any recovery weaker. Similarly, the recession could damage business fundamentals. As a result, the outbreak and its consequences, including responsive measures to manage it, have had and are likely to continue to have an adverse effect, possibly materially, on our business and financial performance by adversely affecting, possibly materially, the demand and profitability of our products and services, the valuation of assets and our ability to meet the needs of our customers.

Explanation of Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we use, and this Press Release contains or references, certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information in understanding our underlying results of operations or financial position and our business and performance trends as they facilitate comparisons with the performance of other companies in the financial services industry. Although we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the understanding of our business and performance, they should not be considered an alternative to GAAP or considered to be more important than financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable with non-GAAP measures which may be presented by other companies. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found herein.

Non-GAAP adjusted items impacting the Company's financial performance are identified to assist investors in analyzing the Company’s operating results on the same basis as that applied by management. Non-GAAP adjusted items reflect non-cash charges related to goodwill impairment and a writedown on fixed assets from the Monessen branch closure.

Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated based on tangible common equity divided by period-end common shares outstanding. Tangible common equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated based on tangible common equity divided by tangible assets. We believe these non-GAAP measures serve as useful tools to help evaluate the strength and discipline of the Company's capital management strategies and as an additional, conservative measure of the Company’s total value.

Interest income on interest-earning assets, net interest rate spread and net interest margin are presented on a fully tax-equivalent (“FTE”) basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax benefit of income on certain tax-exempt loans and securities using the federal statutory income tax rate of 21 percent. We believe the presentation of net interest income on a FTE basis ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice. The following table reconciles net interest income, net interest spread and net interest margin on a FTE basis for the periods indicated:
