FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PRIME MERIDIAN HOLDING COMPANY REPORTS
THIRD QUARTER 2017 RESULTS
TALLAHASSEE, FL., October 24, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Prime Meridian Holding Company (OTCQX: PMHG), the parent bank holding company for Prime Meridian Bank, today announced unaudited financial results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017. The Company reported net earnings of $822,000, or $0.26 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, compared to net earnings of $610,000 or $0.31 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. For the first nine months of 2017, the Company reported net earnings of $2.1 million or $0.83 per basic and diluted share, compared to $1.6 million, or $0.79 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2016.
“There is a lot of positive news to share about our Company,” said CEO and President, Sammie D. Dixon, Jr. “Our team continues to perform well. We were again named in the Top 25 of Best Banks to Work For byAmerican Banker magazine. We moved up in the FDIC Market Share rankings in both counties where we operate (Leon to #10, Wakulla to #3).”
“In addition,” said Mr. Dixon, “the Prime Meridian Bank mortgage team ranks near the top in Dollar Volume of Mortgages in Leon County.” This was according to monthly reports published by Metro Market Trends, Inc.
“The numbers reflect a good quarter for us in terms of net income,” continued Mr. Dixon. “Were we expecting stronger growth in some areas? The answer is, ’Yes.’”
The local rate environment this quarter grew increasingly competitive as other financial institutions sought to grow their market share by lowering rates on loan products and bumping rates on deposits. “Like any good team, we responded appropriately and remained disciplined,” explained Dixon. “Our focus is on a culture of great service, sound margins and solid asset quality.”
The Bank continued its exploration of acquisition opportunities during the quarter. “We believe we are very well positioned for growth based on our management team and capital base,” said Dixon. “And, just like everything else we do, we strive to do it right.”

Earnings Summary
Net Earnings
Net earnings for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 were $822,000, compared to net earnings of $765,000 and $610,000 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, respectively. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, the Company reported net earnings of $2.1 million, compared to $1.6 million for the same period a year ago. The increase in net earnings for the first nine months of 2017 compared to the same period a year ago is attributed to a 19.9% increase in total interest income, a 54.6% decrease in the provision for loan losses, and a 27.7% increase in total non-interest income, all partially offset by a 38.4% increase in total interest expense, an 18.1% increase in total non-interest expense, and a 37.6% increase in income taxes.
Interest Income
For the quarter ended September 30, 2017, total interest income was $3.4 million, compared to $3.2 million for the previous quarter and $2.8 million for the same period a year ago. Compared to the prior quarter, the Company benefitted from higher average balances of interest earning assets and higher yields on loans, excluding mortgage loans held for sale, and higher yields on other interest earning assets, namely federal funds sold. Compared to the third quarter in 2016, the increase is attributed to higher average balances and yields across all categories of interest earning assets. The primary growth driver, however, was an increase in average loans which grew from $219.7 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2016 to $248.7 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017. The average yield on loans also increased over this time period from 4.62% during the third quarter of 2016 to 4.78% during the third quarter of 2017, mainly due to an increase in interest rates charged.
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, total interest income grew $1.6 million, or 19.9%, to $9.5 million, compared to the same period a year ago. Average balances and yields increased across all categories of interest earning assets year over year, but the interest earned on higher average loan balances was the key contributor to interest income growth. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period a year ago, the average balances of loans increased $30.7 million, or 14.8%, while the average yield on loans increased by 6 basis points.
Interest Expense
For the quarter ended September 30, 2017, interest expense was $326,000, compared to $256,000 for the prior quarter and $206,000 for the same period a year ago. The increase in both periods can be attributed to higher average balances of interest bearing deposits and higher average rates paid on deposits. For the quarter ended September 30, 2017, the average balance of interest bearing deposits increased 18.7% to $222.9 million, while the average rate paid on deposits increased 14 basis points to 0.58%, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
For the first nine months of 2017, interest expense increased $230,000, or 38.4%, over the same period last year, again due to higher average balances of interest bearing deposits and higher rates paid on deposits. The time period from September 30, 2016 to September 30, 2017 reflects three 25 basis point increases in the target federal funds rate, which prompted the Company to raise rates on certain categories of interest bearing deposit accounts.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses was $32,000 and $187,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $76,000 and $225,000, as compared to the same periods in 2016. On a linked-quarter basis, the provision for loan losses decreased by $88,000. The lower provision for both the quarter and the nine-month period can be attributed to several different factors, including an overall shift in balances from higher risk-weighted loan portfolio classes to lower risk-weighted portfolio classes and changes in the qualitative factors used by the Company in determining its provision, as both the Company and its peers have experienced improved asset quality trends in recent periods.
Net Interest Margin
The net interest margin was 3.68% for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 3.73% last quarter and 3.76% for the same period in 2016. Compared to the prior linked-quarter and the same period last year, growth in lower yielding other earning assets, namely federal funds sold, contributed to a decrease in the net interest margin. Federal funds sold increased as the Company works to deploy the capital it raised during the second quarter of 2017. The decrease in the net interest margin was also impacted by the higher cost of funds for the quarter.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the net interest margin was 3.67%, compared to 3.76% for the same period a year ago. Despite higher average balances and yields across all categories of interest earning assets, a change in the interest earning assets mix led to a decrease in the overall yield of the interest earning assets portfolio. This, in combination with higher average balances of interest bearing deposits and higher deposit funding costs, led to the decrease in the Company’s net interest margin.
Non-interest Income
On a linked-quarter basis, non-interest income decreased $143,000, or 23.9%, and is attributed to a $142,000 decline in mortgage banking revenue. Reduced volume of mortgage loans sold to the secondary market resulted in a lower gain on sale of loans held for sale and decreased wholesale brokerage fees.
Compared to the same period a year ago, non-interest income increased $40,000, or 9.6%, for the quarter due to an 8.1% increase in service charges and fees on deposit accounts, a 5.8% increase in mortgage banking revenue, and a 27.5% increase in other income, primarily consisting of higher credit card and debit card income.
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, non-interest income grew $320,000, or 27.7%. A $306,000, or 48%, increase in mortgage banking revenue, a $67,000, or 38.5%, increase in service charges and fees on deposit accounts, and a $52,000, or 25.2%, increase in other income (mostly credit card and debit card income and ATM fees) were the key drivers to the overall gain in non-interest income in 2017, while the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016 benefitted from a $102,000 gain on sale of securities available for sale.
Non-interest Expense
On a linked-quarter basis, non-interest expense decreased $17,000, or 0.8%, as higher expenses for salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, and professional fees were offset by lower advertising and other non-interest expenses.
Non-interest expense increased $291,000, or 15.2%, for the quarter and $1.0 million, or 18.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same periods a year ago. Salaries, mortgage banking commissions, and employee benefits were the primary expense drivers in both periods, increasing $186,000, or 17.5%, for the quarter and $728,000, or 24.2%, for the nine-month period as the Company continues to add employees to serve its growing client base. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, the Company’s full time equivalent employees (FTEs) averaged 67 compared to 58 for the same period in 2016.
Balance Sheet
At September 30, 2017, the Company reported $344.5 million in total assets, $296.7 million in deposits, and $245.2 million in net portfolio loans. This compares to $303.9 million in total assets, $275.3 million in deposits, and $222.8 million in net portfolio loans at December 31, 2016. The composition of the Bank’s loan portfolio was as follows on the indicated dates:

Total stockholders’ equity was $46.3 million, or 13.4% of total assets, at September 30, 2017, compared to $27.1 million, or 8.9% of total assets, at December 31, 2016. Book value per share increased from $13.51 at December 31, 2016 to $14.94 at September 30, 2017, with 3,101,319 common shares outstanding.
The Company completed a public stock offering during the second quarter. The offering netted the Company approximately $17 million in additional capital to be used for general corporate purposes, maintaining liquidity, and expansionary activities.
As of September 30, 2017, the Bank was considered to be “well capitalized” with a Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio of 9.38%, a 12.76% Common Equity Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio, a 12.76% Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio, and a 13.97% Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio.
Asset Quality
Loans totaling $137,000 were deemed to be impaired under the Bank’s policy at September 30, 2017, while loans totaling $811,000 were deemed to be impaired under the Bank’s policy at December 31, 2016. At September 30, 2017, the Bank had one nonaccrual loan in the aggregate amount of $60,000 compared to four nonaccrual loans totaling $811,000 at December 31, 2016. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses which was $3.1 million, or 1.24% of gross loans, at September 30, 2017 is adequate.
