Income Statement and Balance Sheet Overview

Total interest and dividend income increased $198,000 or 7.0%, to $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The increase in average yield was primarily the result higher yielding additions to our securities portfolio and an increase in the rate paid on our deposits with the Federal Reserve.

Total interest expense decreased $67,000, or 25.3%, to $198,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $265,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $4.3 million, or 2.2%, to $198.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $194.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 15 basis points to 0.40% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 0.55% for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Net interest margin was 3.69% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 3.23% for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The loan loss provision was $0 for both the three months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021. At June 30, 2022, our allowance for loan loss was $2.4 million, or 1.11%, of total loans.

Noninterest income decreased $6,000, or 2.3% to $254,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $260,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the gain on sale of loans of $59,000 offset by an increase in service charges and other fees of $47,000.

Noninterest expense decreased $42,000 to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in salaries and employee benefits expenses of $79,000 and a decrease in data processing expenses of $49,000 offset by an increase in professional fees of $53,000 and occupancy and equipment fees of $35,000.

Total assets decreased $26.7 million, or 7.5%, to $330.4 million at June 30, 2022 from $357.1 million at December 31, 2021 in part due to a decrease in deposits and share repurchase activity.

Nonaccrual loans were $0.2 million, or 0.07% of total loans, at June 30, 2022 and $0.3 million, or 0.13% of total loans, at December 31, 2021. Non-performing assets were $0.2 million, or 0.05% of total assets at June 30, 2022 and $0.3 million, or 0.08% of total assets, at December 31, 2021.
