DOYLESTOWN, Pa., Feb. 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HV Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company” or “HVB”) (Nasdaq Capital Market: HVBC), the holding company of Huntingdon Valley Bank (the “Bank”), reported operating results for the year ended December 31, 2021. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $4.1 million ($2.04 per basic share of common stock and $1.98 per diluted share of common stock) versus net income of $5.8 million ($2.84 per basic and diluted shares of common stock) for the year ended December 31, 2020. This resulted in shareholders’ equity increasing 9.5% from $38.9 million at December 31, 2020, to $42.6 million at December 31, 2021, and book value per share increasing from $17.78 per share of common to 19.64 per share of common stock over the same period. Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was $351,000 ($0.18 per basic share of common stock and $0.17 diluted share of common stock) versus $1.1 million ($0.56 per basic share of common stock and $0.54 per diluted share of common stock) compared to the prior quarter. For the year ended December 31, 2021, Net Interest Income was $14.5 million, representing an increase 36% over the prior year.

Travis J. Thompson, Esq., Chairman & CEO, commented, “We are pleased to announce our year end results for 2021. As government intervention in the banking system through accommodative monetary policy and fiscal policy begins to normalize, HVB continued to deliver strong performance and increased its presence in the Greater Philadelphia Market. Our Business Banking Division successfully facilitated $104.7 million in Payment Protection Program (PPP) loan forgiveness, while adding $153 million in new commercial loan originations. HVB continues to expand its Business Banking Division with the addition of new President, Bob Marino, and the announcement of a new C&I lending team.”

Mr. Thompson further commented, “Our Residential Mortgage Division closed 2,412 new loans totaling $636 million despite the uptick in interest rates combined with reduced housing inventory. HVB continues to be a leader in the Greater Philadelphia Residential Mortgage industry. Our Business Banking and Residential Mortgage divisions are now complimenting each other and both adding to HVB’s superior customer experience resulting in sustained growth.”

Highlights for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021 include:

  • Bob Marino, Vice-Chairman, joined the Bank’s executive leadership team as President, effective December 1, 2021. The addition of Mr. Marino will enable the Bank to capitalize upon his knowledge, contacts, and experience, as the Bank expands its Business Banking Division throughout the Greater Philadelphia Market.

  • HVB’s Business Banking Division announced the addition of a new Commercial Lending team to led by Allan Burkley, which will be located in Media, PA, HVB’s first office in Delaware County.

  • For the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, Net Interest Income was $3.7 million and $14.5 million, an increase of 16% and 36% from the same periods in 2020. The increase in Net Interest Income was due to significant growth in the commercial loan portfolio, offset by PPP forgiveness and a decrease in one-to-four family loans held for sale.

  • Non-interest income decreased $2.5 million from the quarter ended December 31, 2020, and $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, as a result of reductions in mortgage banking revenues, which is consistent with recent market conditions as available homes for sale tightened and mortgage loan refinance opportunities declined due to an uptick in interest rates.

  • Net Interest Margin continues to improve, increasing from 2.49% for the three months ended December 31, 2020, to 2.83% for the three months ended December 31, 2021, representing a 13.7% increase primarily due to the expansion of the commercial loan portfolio.

  • Shareholders’ equity increased 9.5% from $38.9 million at December 31, 2020, to $42.6 million at December 31, 2021.

  • Book value per share increased from $17.78 per share of common stock at December 31, 2020, to $19.64 per share of common stock at December 31, 2021.

  • The Company repurchased 5,133 shares of its common stock in the fourth quarter of 2021, at an average price of $22.68 and 20,911 shares of its common stock, at an average price of $18.67 for the year ended December 31, 2021.

COVID-19 Update:

  • The Company participated in two rounds of the United States Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), successfully processing over 800 applications totaling approximately $126.0 million. The forgiveness process remains on target with an outstanding PPP balance of just $22.9 million at December 31, 2021. We recognized approximately $478,000 and $3.2 million in fee income for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

  • As of December 31, 2021, there were no borrowers in payment deferral under the CARES act.

Balance Sheet: December 31, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020

Total assets decreased $301.5 million to $560.1 million at December 31, 2021, from $861.6 million at December 31, 2020. The decrease was primarily the result of decreases of $293.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $43.0 million in net loans held for sale, offset by increases of $21.0 million in investment securities, $11.4 million in loans receivable, net, $1.4 million in mortgage servicing rights, $1.0 million in right-of-use assets, and $1.5 million in other assets. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $293.8 million to $120.8 million at December 31, 2021, from $414.6 million at December 31, 2020, as a result of anticipated outflows of retail deposits from certain accounts.

Total liabilities decreased $305.2 million, or 37.1%, to $517.5 million at December 31, 2021, from $822.7 million at December 31, 2020. The decrease in total liabilities was primarily from a $266.8 million decrease in deposits, $45.6 million decrease in advances from the Federal Reserve's Paycheck Protection Program liquidity facility ("PPPLF"), $2.3 million decrease in other liabilities offset by the issuance of a $10.0 million subordinated note and $1.1 million increase in operating lease liabilities. Deposits decreased $266.8 million, or 36.5%, to $464.0 million at December 31, 2021, from $730.8 million at December 31, 2020. Our core deposits (consisting of demand deposits, money market, passbook and statement and checking accounts) decreased $236.9 million, or 35.4%, to $431.8 million at December 31, 2021, from $668.7 million at December 31, 2020, as there was an anticipated decrease in certain retail accounts in our core deposits during the first quarter of 2021. Certificates of deposit decreased $29.9 million, or 48.1%, to $32.2 million at December 31, 2021, from $62.1 million at December 31, 2020, because of decreases of $10.0 million of certificates of deposit issued through brokers and $19.9 million in retail certificates of deposit.

Total shareholders’ equity increased $3.7 million to $42.6 million at December 31, 2021, from $38.9 million at December 31, 2020, primarily as a result of net income of $4.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, share based compensation expense of $240,000 and ESOP shares committed to be released of $166,000 and stock option exercises of $28,000. Offsetting these increases was other comprehensive loss of $386,000 due to fair value adjustments, net of deferred tax, on the investment securities available-for-sale portfolio and $391,000 in treasury stock repurchases primarily as part of the stock repurchase plan approved in April 2019.

Income Statement: For the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020

Credit for loan losses was $91,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to a provision of loan losses of $123,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The negative provision of $91,000 reflects improvement in economic factors previously impacted by COVID-19. During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, there were no net charge-offs recorded compared to $15,000 of net charge-offs recorded during the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

Non-interest income was $2.1 million and $13.4 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, compared to $4.6 million and $16.9 million for the same periods in 2020. Non-interest income decreased $2.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020 primarily due to a $2.6 million decrease in gain on sale of loans and an increase of $291,000 in loss on derivative instruments offset by a $154,000 increase in fees for customer service. The decrease of $3.5 million in non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to decreases of $2.8 million in change in fair value of loans held-for-sale and $2.7 million on loss in derivative instruments offset by increases of $1.5 million increase in the gain on sale of loans and $349,000 in fees for customer services.

Non-Interest Expense:

Total non-interest expense increased $700,000, or 14.5%, to $5.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, from $4.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 and increased $3.4 million, or 18.4%, to $21.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 from $18.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to the quarter of December 31, 2020, was primarily a result of increases of $421,000 in salaries and employee benefits, $191,000 in other expenses, and $115,000 in occupancy expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the increase in non-interest expense was primarily as a result of increases of $2.1 million in salaries and employee benefits, $424,000 in occupancy expenses, $304,000 in data processing-related operations costs, $224,000 in federal deposit insurance premiums and $190,000 in professional fees. Salaries increased as full time equivalent (FTE) employees increased to one-hundred forty-three as of December 31, 2021, from one-hundred twenty-six as of December 31, 2020, primarily as a result of the expansion of the Company’s lending and business banking operations.

Income Taxes:

Income tax expense was $70,000 and $1.5 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, compared to $781,000 and $2.2 million during the same periods in fiscal year 2020. The decrease in income tax expense for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the same period a year ago reflected a decrease in income before taxes. The effective tax rates were 16.6% and 26.5% for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, compared to 27.5% and 27.6% during the same periods in fiscal year 2020.
