Landmark Bancorp, Inc. Announces Second Quarter Diluted Earnings Per Share of $1.04
Declares Cash Dividend of $0.20 per Share
(Manhattan, KS, July 27, 2021) – Landmark Bancorp, Inc. (“Landmark”; Nasdaq: LARK) reported diluted earnings per share of $1.04 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $1.08 per share in the same quarter last year and $1.13 per share in the first quarter of 2021. Net earnings for the second quarter of 2021 amounted to $5.0 million, compared to $5.1 million for the second quarter of 2020 and $5.4 million in the prior quarter. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the return on average assets was 1.59%, the return on average equity was 15.40%, and the efficiency ratio was 58.9%.
For the first six months of 2021, diluted earnings per share totaled $2.17 compared to $1.77 during the same period of 2020 while net earnings increased 22.3% to $10.3 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the return on average assets was 1.68% and the return on average equity was 16.22%.
Michael E. Scheopner, President and Chief Executive Officer of Landmark, said, “Our Company reported strong earnings during the second quarter of 2021, driven mainly by increased net interest income, lower credit costs, continued solid mortgage banking activities and good expense control. Compared to the second quarter of 2020, our net interest income grew 10.7% primarily due to increased interest income on loans and lower deposit costs. While fees from mortgage banking activities declined this quarter as a result of slightly higher mortgage rates and lower housing inventories, we continued to see solid loan origination activity in our markets. Excluding Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, gross loans grew by $10.6 million, or 6.9% annualized, this quarter due mainly to growth in commercial real estate and residential real estate loans. PPP loans declined by $56.1 million this quarter mostly due to loan forgiveness by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Total deposits increased $6.5 million this quarter and have increased 14.1% since June 30, 2020. Lower total gross loans coupled with growth in deposits resulted in increases to cash and investment securities.”
Mr. Scheopner continued, “Credit quality remained strong this quarter as the Company recorded net loan charge-offs of $108,000 compared to net loan charge-offs of $4,000 in the prior quarter and $132,000 in the same quarter last year. The allowance for loan losses totaled $9.2 million at June 30, 2021, and there was no provision for loan losses this quarter as a result of an improving economy. The allowance for loan losses was 1.47% of period end loans, excluding PPP loans for which no loan loss reserve has been provided. Loan modifications related to COVID-19 made last year to support our customers have mostly been returned to their original contractual terms. Our capital position remains strong with total equity to assets of 10.58%. We believe Landmark’s risk management practices, liquidity and capital strength continue to position us well to meet the financial needs of families and businesses in our markets.”
Landmark’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.20 per share, to be paid August 25, 2021, to common stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 11, 2021. Management will host a conference call to discuss the Company’s financial results at 10:00 a.m. (Central time) on Wednesday, July 28, 2021. Investors may participate via telephone by dialing (877) 510-0473. A replay of the call will be available through August 28, 2021, by dialing (877) 344-7529 and using conference number 10158612.
SUMMARY OF SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income amounted to $10.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $9.0 million in the same period last year and $9.6 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase of $965,000, or 10.7%, from the second quarter of 2020 was primarily the result of an increase in interest on loans and stable deposit costs. During the second quarter of 2021, interest income on loans increased $1.1 million compared to the same period last year. This increase in loan interest income was mainly due to higher interest and fees earned on PPP loans, but also due to higher average loan balances, which increased $35.7 million, or 5.3%, compared to the same period last year. Interest and fees recognized on PPP loans in the second quarter of 2021 totaled $2.2 million compared to $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2021, and $665,000 in the same period last year. On a tax-equivalent basis, the net interest margin totaled 3.54% in the second quarter 2021, compared to 3.51% in the prior quarter and 3.72% in the second quarter 2020.
Non-Interest Income
Total non-interest income was $5.5 million for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of $1.5 million, or 21.5%, compared to the same period last year and a decrease $1.3 million, or 18.6%, from the previous quarter. The decrease in non-interest income during the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to a decrease of $2.0 million in gains on sales of mortgage loans as originations of one-to-four family residential loans declined. Decreased loan originations mainly resulted from higher mortgage interest rates during the second quarter of 2021, which reduced refinancing activity and decreased housing inventory. The first quarter of 2021 included gains of $1.1 million on the sale of higher-coupon municipal investment securities while the second quarter of 2021 only included gains of $33,000 on the sale of low balance mortgage-backed investment securities.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense totaled $9.2 million for the second quarter of 2021 compared to $9.1 million in the same period last year and $9.1 million in the first quarter of 2021. Non-interest expense increased $74,000, or 0.8%, from the second quarter of 2020 and $117,000, or 1.3%, from the prior quarter. The increase in non-interest expense in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period of last year was primarily due to an increase of $141,000 in other non-interest expense mostly related to costs associated with processing PPP loan forgiveness applications. The increase in non-interest expense from the first quarter of 2021 was related to increases in compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment and professional fees.
Income Tax Expense
Landmark recorded income tax expense of $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2020. The effective tax rate decreased from 21.2% in the second quarter of 2020 to 20.5% in the second quarter of 2021, and 20.4% in the first quarter of 2021.
Balance Sheet Highlights
During the second quarter of 2021, total assets increased $1.6 million, or 0.5% annualized, from March 31, 2021 to $1.3 billion. Compared to March 31, 2021, total gross loans decreased $45.5 million to $685.2 million primarily due to a decline of $56.1 million in PPP loans. The average balance of PPP loans totaled $97.5 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $111.0 million in the prior quarter and $102.8 million in the second quarter last year. Excluding these loans, gross loans increased $10.6 million, or 6.9% annualized, during the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to a $9.3 million increase in commercial real estate loans and growth of $2.8 million in one-to-four family residential real estate loans. Compared to March 31, 2021, investment securities increased $23.0 million to $343.9 million as of June 30, 2021, while deposits increased $6.5 million, or 2.4% annualized, to $1.1 billion. The combination of deposit growth and a decline in PPP loans resulted in increases to both investment securities and cash and cash equivalents.
Stockholders’ equity increased to $132.4 million (book value of $27.83 per share) as of June 30, 2021, from $128.3 million (book value of $26.97 per share) as of March 31, 2021. The ratio of equity to total assets increased to 10.58% on June 30, 2021, from 10.27% at March 31, 2021 while the ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets (a non-GAAP financial measure) increased from 8.98% to 9.30% between the same dates.
The allowance for loan losses totaled $9.2 million, or 1.47% of total gross loans (excluding PPP loans) on June 30, 2021, compared to $9.3 million, or 1.51% of total gross loans (excluding PPP loans) on March 31, 2021. No allowance for loan losses has been allocated to PPP loans because they are guaranteed by the SBA. Between March 31, 2021, and June 30, 2021, non-performing loans increased $2.3 million to $13.3 million, or 1.94% of total loans, on June 30, 2021, while loans 30-89 days delinquent loans decreased $3.1 million to $1.9 million, or 0.27% of gross loans, as of June 30, 2021. Net loan charge-offs totaled $108,000 in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $132,000 during the same quarter last year and $4,000 during the first quarter of 2021.
Loan Modifications and Forbearance Plans
As of June 30, 2021, the Company had 1 COVID-related loan modification with an outstanding loan balance of $3.8 million that had not yet returned to contractual terms, as compared to 4 loan modifications with a total outstanding balance of $6.8 million on March 31, 2021. This loan modification was related to a commercial real estate loan that was also on non-accrual status as of June 30, 2021. The Company also had one other small residential mortgage loan on a short-term forbearance plan as of June 30, 2021.
