EAGLE FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC. ANNOUNCES 2022 FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

PR Newswire

BERRYVILLE, Va., May 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Eagle Financial Services, Inc. (OTCQX: EFSI), the holding company for Bank of Clarke County, whose divisions include Eagle Investment Group, announced its first quarter 2022 results.  Select highlights for the first quarter include:

  • Net income of $3.3 million
  • Deposit growth of $54.1 million
  • Basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.94
  • Loan activity:
    • PPP forgiveness - $7.5 million
    • Sales - $36.5 million
    • Net growth - $35.2 million

Brandon Lorey, President and CEO, stated, "I am happy to report another strong quarter for the Company with a number of "1sts" for EFSI and the Bank. The Organization's loan portfolio breached the $1 billion dollar mark in the first quarter and posted a record annualized net income figure of $13.2 million. Annualized earnings per share also reached a record high of $3.80. Despite $7.5 million of PPP loan runoff, as that portfolio continues to shrink, and over $36.0 million in loan sales, the Bank's loan portfolio grew by $35.7 million which was more than matched by quarter's core deposit growth of $54.0 million resulting in annualized 5-year compound annual growth rates (CAGR) of 14.9% and 16.05%, respectively. We continue to strengthen diversified revenue streams as our non-interest income provides over 20% of the Bank's total income, driven primarily by our expanded Trust and Advisory Services and loan sales and servicing. I would like to thank our shareholders for their continued support as well as our employees for their tireless efforts to ensure we meet and exceed the needs of our customers every single day."

Income Statement Review

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was $3.3 million reflecting an increase of 42.4% from the quarter ended December 31, 2021 and an increase of 13.6% from the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The increase from the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was mainly driven by increased legal expenses during the quarter ended December 31, 2021.  Net income was $2.3 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2021 and $2.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Net interest income for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $11.1 million. Net interest income was $9.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  The increase in net interest income from the quarter March 31, 2021 resulted primarily from growth in the Company's loan portfolio.

Total loan interest income was $10.6 million and $10.7 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.  Total loan interest income was $9.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Total loan interest income increased $1.2 million or 12.9% from the quarter ended March 31, 2021 to the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Average loans for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were $1.01 billion compared to $854.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  The tax equivalent yield on average loans for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was 4.25%, a decrease of 23 basis points from the 4.48% average yield for the same time period in 2021. The majority of this decrease in yield can be attributed to loans being originated at a rate lower than those that are paying off.

Interest and dividend income from the investment portfolio was $872 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared to $784 thousand for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. Interest income and dividend income from the investment portfolio was $596 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The increase in interest and dividend income resulted from the increase in rates on securities purchased during the first quarter of 2022 as well as the increase in the balance of the investment portfolio. Average investments for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were $198.0 million compared to $197.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. Average investments were $162.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The tax equivalent yield on average investments for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was 1.83%, up 19 basis points from 1.64% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 and up 26 basis points from 1.57% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Total interest expense was $370 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $373 thousand and $487 thousand for three months ended December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively. The decrease in interest expense resulted from the reduction in interest rates paid on deposit accounts. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased one and 11 basis points when comparing the quarter ended March 31, 2022 to the quarters ended December 31, 2021 and  March 31, 2021, respectively. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $26.4 million from the quarter ended December 31, 2021 to the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $108.6 million from the quarter ended March 31, 2021 to the same period in 2022.

The net interest margin was 3.61% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. For the quarters ended December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the net interest margin was 3.67% and 3.62%, respectively. The Company's net interest margin is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, but it is a common measure used by the financial services industry to determine how profitably earning assets are funded. The Company's net interest margin is calculated by dividing tax equivalent net interest income by total average earning assets. Tax equivalent net interest income is calculated by grossing up interest income for the amounts that are non-taxable (i.e., municipal income) then subtracting interest expense. The tax rate utilized is 21%.

Noninterest income was $3.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, which represented a decrease of $119 thousand or 3.5% from the $3.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Noninterest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $2.4 million. The $816 thousand increase between the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 was driven by several factors including the gain on sale of loans held for sale. In addition, income from fiduciary activities increased $314 or 51.7% due to an increase in assets under management.

Noninterest expense decreased $2.0 million, or 16.5%, to $9.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 from $11.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. Legal expenses were higher during the fourth quarter of 2021 primarily from the expansion of the Bank's wealth management business line and also its build out of the marine lending division. Approximately $2.0 million of these fourth-quarter expenses are expected to be one-time fees. Noninterest expense was $7.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, representing an increase of $2.0 million or 25.4% when comparing to the quarter ended March 31, 2022 to the quarter ended March 31, 2021. An increase in salaries and benefits expenses was also noted between the first quarter of 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021. Annual pay increases, newly hired employees, incentive plan accruals and increased insurance costs have attributed to these increases. The number of full-time equivalent employees (FTEs) has increased from 195 at March 31, 2021, to 224 at March 31, 2022.

 Asset Quality and Provision for Loan Losses

Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, other real estate owned (foreclosed properties), and repossessed assets. Nonperforming assets decreased from $2.8 million or 0.21% of total assets at December 31, 2021 to $2.6 million or 0.19% of total assets at March 31, 2022. Nonperforming assets were $4.8 million at March 31, 2021.  Total nonaccrual loans were $2.6 million at March 31, 2022 and $2.7 million at December 31, 2021. Nonaccrual loans were $4.3 million at March 31, 2021. The majority of all nonaccrual loans are secured by real estate and management evaluates the financial condition of these borrowers and the value of any collateral on these loans. The results of these evaluations are used to estimate the amount of losses which may be realized on the disposition of these nonaccrual loans.  Other real estate owned was at zero at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Company may, under certain circumstances, restructure loans in troubled debt restructurings as a concession to a borrower when the borrower is experiencing financial distress. Formal, standardized loan restructuring programs are not utilized by the Company. Each loan considered for restructuring is evaluated based on customer circumstances and may include modifications to one or more loan provision. Such restructured loans are included in impaired loans but may not necessarily be nonperforming loans. At March 31, 2022, the Company had 17 troubled debt restructurings totaling $2.6 million. Approximately $2.5 million or 15 loans are performing loans, while the remaining loans are on non-accrual status. At December 31, 2021, the Company had 17 troubled debt restructurings totaling $2.7 million. Approximately $2.5 million or 15 loans were performing loans, while the remaining loans were on non-accrual status.

The Company realized $12 thousand in net charge-offs for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 versus $39 thousand in net recoveries for the three months ended December 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, $61 thousand in net recoveries were recognized. The amount of provision for loan losses reflects the results of the Bank's analysis used to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $540 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The Company recognized provision for loan losses of $300 thousand and $599 thousand for the quarters ended December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively. The provision for the quarters ended March 31, 2022, December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021 resulted mostly from loan growth during the quarter. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.91% at March 31, 2022 and 0.89% at December 31, 2021.  The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.88% at March 31, 2021. Excluding outstanding PPP loans, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.92% at March 31, 2022, 0.91% at December 31, 2021 and 0.98% as March 31, 2021. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total nonaccrual loans was 357.47% at March 31, 2022.  The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total nonaccrual loans was 322.70% and 179.82% at December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively. Management's judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of the collectability of loans while taking into consideration such factors as trends in delinquencies and charge-offs, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect a borrower's ability to repay and the value of collateral, overall portfolio quality and review of specific potential losses. The Company is committed to maintaining an allowance at a level that adequately reflects the risk inherent in the loan portfolio.

Total Consolidated Assets

Total consolidated assets of the Company at March 31, 2022 were $1.37 billion, which represented an increase of $71.3 million or 5.5% from total assets of $1.30 billion at December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021 total consolidated assets were $1.18 billion. Total net loans increased $35.2 million from $976.9 million at December 31, 2021 to $1.01 billion at March 31, 2022. During the quarter, $7.5 million in SBA PPP loans were forgiven or paid down and $36.5 million in loans were sold. The Company sold $4.2 million in mortgage loans on the secondary market and $32.3 million of loans from the commercial and consumer loan portfolios. These loan sales resulted in gains of $285 thousand. Total securities increased $1.2 million from $193.4 million at December 31, 2021, to $194.6 million at March 31, 2022.  At March 31, 2021 total investment securities were $175.0 million and net loans were $867.2 million. The growth in total loans and total assets was largely due to organic loan portfolio growth as the Company expands lending types and markets.

 Deposits and Other Borrowings

Total deposits increased $54.1 million to $1.23 billion at March 31, 2022 from $1.18 billion at December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021 total deposits were $1.07 billion.  The growth in deposits was mainly organic growth as the Company continues to expand and grow into newer market areas.

The Company had no outstanding borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta at March 31, 2022, December 31, 2021 or March 31, 2021.

On March 31, 2022, the Company entered into Subordinated Note Purchase Agreements with certain qualified institutional buyers and accredited institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company issued 4.50% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2032, in the aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million. The Company intends to use the net issuance proceeds for general corporate purposes, including a capital contribution to its wholly owned subsidiary, Bank of Clarke County, to support its continued organic growth.

Equity

Shareholders' equity was $102.1 million and $110.3 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Shareholders' equity was $105.1 million at March 31, 2021. The decrease in shareholder's equity at March 31, 2022 was driven by the other comprehensive loss from the unrealized loss on available for sale securities. The book value of the Company at March 31, 2022 was $29.37 per common share. Total common shares outstanding were 3,477,020 at March 31, 2022. On April 20, 2022, the board of directors declared a $0.28 per common share cash dividend for shareholders of record as of May 4, 2022 and payable on May 18, 2022.

COVID-19 Impacts

The COVID-19 crisis has changed our communities, both in the way we live and the way we do business. While circumstances continue to change, the Company is continuing to work steadfastly to meet and exceed the needs of its customers, employees, and the communities in which it does business. Customers' banking needs have continued to be fulfilled through multiple banking channels including mobile, digital, and adjusted-schedule physical.  In efforts to assist local businesses during this pandemic, the Company originated 1,372 PPP loans (through two rounds of lending), totaling $132.1 million, into the hands of our community's small businesses. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, $7.5 million of PPP loans were forgiven or paid down. As of March 31, 2022, $8.4 million in PPP loans are still outstanding. In addition to local small businesses, the Company worked with its consumer and commercial customers through its loan deferral program whereby customers experiencing hardships due to COVID-19 were granted a deferral in loan payments for up to 90 days. During 2020 and through the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company approved 256 deferrals with loan balances totalling approximately $127.5 million for its customers experiencing hardships related to COVID-19. As of March 31, 2022, all loans had begun making payments on their loans after the deferral date had passed.

The net interest margin is calculated by dividing tax equivalent net interest income by total average earning assets. Tax equivalent interest income is calculated by grossing up interest income for the amounts that are non-taxable (i.e., municipal income) then subtracting interest expense. The rate utilized is 21%. See the table below for the quarterly tax equivalent net interest income and the reconciliation of net interest income to tax equivalent net interest income. The Company's net interest margin is a common measure used by the financial service industry to determine how profitable earning assets are funded. Because the Company earns a fair amount of nontaxable interest income due to the mix of securities in its investment security portfolio, net interest income for the ratio is calculated on a tax equivalent basis as described above.

(2)

The efficiency ratio is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. It is calculated by dividing non-interest expense by the sum of tax equivalent net interest income and non-interest income excluding gains and losses on the investment portfolio and sales of repossessed assets. The tax rate utilized is 21%. See the table below for the quarterly tax equivalent net interest income and a reconciliation of net interest income to tax equivalent net interest income. The Company calculates this ratio in order to evaluate its overhead structure or how effectively it is operating. An increase in the ratio from period to period indicates the Company is losing a larger percentage of its income to expenses. The Company believes that the efficiency ratio is a reasonable measure of profitability.

The diluted earnings multiple (or price earnings ratio) is calculated by dividing the period's closing market price per share by total equity per weighted average shares outstanding, diluted for the period. The diluted earnings multiple is a measure of how much an investor may be willing to pay for $1.00 of the Company's earnings.

(2)

The book value multiple (or price to book ratio) is calculated by dividing the period's closing market price per share by the period's book value per share. The book value multiple is a measure used to compare the Company's market value per share to its book value per share.

“Our results show that PR55α specifically reduces p16 expression […]”

BUFFALO, NY- March 19, 2024 – A new research paper was published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as “Aging (Albany NY)” and “Aging-US” by Web of Science) Volume 16, Issue 5, entitled, “PR55α-controlled protein phosphatase 2A inhibits p16 expression and blocks cellular senescence induction by γ-irradiation.”

Cellular senescence is a permanent cell cycle arrest that can be triggered by both internal and external genotoxic stressors, such as telomere dysfunction and DNA damage. The execution of senescence is mainly by two pathways, p16/RB and p53/p21, which lead to CDK4/6 inhibition and RB activation to block cell cycle progression. While the regulation of p53/p21 signaling in response to DNA damage and other insults is well-defined, the regulation of the p16/RB pathway in response to various stressors remains poorly understood. 

In this new study, researchers Chitra Palanivel, Lepakshe S. V. Madduri, Ashley L. Hein, Christopher B. Jenkins, Brendan T. Graff, Alison L. Camero, Sumin Zhou, Charles A. Enke, Michel M. Ouellette, and Ying Yan from the University of Nebraska Medical Center report a novel function of PR55α, a regulatory subunit of PP2A Ser/Thr phosphatase, as a potent inhibitor of p16 expression and senescence induction by ionizing radiation (IR), such as γ-rays. 

“During natural aging, there is a gradual accumulation of p16-expressing senescent cells in tissues [76]. To investigate the significance of PR55α in this up-regulation of p16, we compared levels of the p16 and PR55α proteins in a panel of normal tissue specimens derived from young (≤43 y/o) and old (≥68 y/o) donors.”

The results show that ectopic PR55α expression in normal pancreatic cells inhibits p16 transcription, increases RB phosphorylation, and blocks IR-induced senescence. Conversely, PR55α-knockdown by shRNA in pancreatic cancer cells elevates p16 transcription, reduces RB phosphorylation, and triggers senescence induction after IR. Furthermore, this PR55α function in the regulation of p16 and senescence is p53-independent because it was unaffected by the mutational status of p53. Moreover, PR55α only affects p16 expression but not p14 (ARF) expression, which is also transcribed from the same CDKN2A locus but from an alternative promoter. In normal human tissues, levels of p16 and PR55α proteins were inversely correlated and mutually exclusive. 

“Collectively, these results describe a novel function of PR55α/PP2A in blocking p16/RB signaling and IR-induced cellular senescence.”

Bolsonaro Indicted By Brazilian Police For Falsifying Covid-19 Vaccine Records

Federal police in Brazil have indicted former President Jair Bolsonaro for falsifying his Covid-19 vaccine card in order to travel to the United States and elsewhere during the pandemic.

Federal prosecutors will review the indictment and decide whether to pursue the case - which would be the first time the former president has faced criminal charges.

According to the indictment, Bolsonaro ordered a top deputy to obtain falsified Covid-19 vaccine records of himself and his 13-year-old daughter in late 2022, right before he flew to Florida for a three-month stay following his election loss.

Brazilian police are also waiting to hear back from the US DOJ on whether Bolsonaro used said cards to enter the United States, which would open him up to further criminal charges, the NY Times reports.

Bolsonaro has repeatedly claimed not to have received the Covid-19 vaccine, but denies any involvement in a plan to falsify his vaccination records. A previous investigation by Brazil's comptroller general concluded that Bolsonaro's vaccination records were false.

The records show that Bolsonaro, a COVID-19 skeptic who publicly opposed the vaccine, received a dose of the immunizer in a public healthcare center in Sao Paulo in July 2021. [ZH: hilarious, Reuters calling the vaccine an 'immunizer.']

The investigation concluded, however, that the former president had left the city the previous day and didn't leave Brasilia until three days later, according to a statement.

"It's a selective investigation. I'm calm, I don't owe anything," Bolsonaro told Reuters. "The world knows that I didn't take the vaccine."

During the pandemic, Bolsonaro panned the vaccine - and instead insisted on alternative treatments such as Ivermectin, which has antiviral properties against Covid-19. For this, he was investigated by Brazil's congress, which recommended that the former president be charged with "crimes against humanity," among other things, for his actions during the pandemic.

In May, Brazilian police raided Bolsonaro's home, confiscating his cell phone and arresting one of his closest aides and two of his security cards in connection to the vaccine record investigation.

Brazil's electoral court ruled that Bolsonaro can't run for public office until 2030 after he suggested that the country's voting system was rigged. For that, he has to sit out the 2026 election.

Spread & Containment

TJ Maxx and Marshalls follow Costco and Target on upcoming closures

Many of these stores have information customers need to know.

U.S. consumers have come to increasingly rely on the near ubiquity of convenience stores and big-box retailers. 

Many of us depend on these stores being open practically all day, every day, even during some of the biggest holidays. After all, Black Friday beckons retail stores to open just hours after a Thanksgiving Day dinner in hopes of attracting huge crowds of shoppers in search of early holiday sales.

And it's largely true that before the covid pandemic most of our favorite stores were open all the time. Practically nothing — from inclement weather to bad news to holidays — could shut down a major operation like Walmart  (WMT)  or Target  (TGT)

Then the pandemic hit, and it turned everything we thought we knew about retail operations upside down. 

Everything from grocery stores to shopping malls shut down in an effort to contain potential spread. And when they finally reopened to the public, different stores took different precautionary measures. Some monitored how many shoppers were inside at once, while others implemented foot-traffic rules dictating where one could enter and exit an aisle. And almost every one of them mandated wearing masks at one point or another. 

Though these safety measures seem like a distant memory, one relic from the early 2020s remains firmly a part of our new American retail life.

Store closures announced for spring 2024

Many retailers have learned to adapt after a volatile start to this third decade, and in many ways this requires serving customers better and treating employees better to retain a workforce. 

In some cases, the changes also reflect a change in shopping behavior, as more customers order online and leave more breathing room for brick-and-mortar operations. This also means more time for employees. 

Thanks to this, big retailers have recently changed how they operate, especially during holiday hours, with Walmart recently saying it would close during Thanksgiving to give employees more time to spend with loved ones.

"I am delighted to share that once again, we'll be closing our doors for Thanksgiving this year," Walmart U.S. CEO John Furner told associates in a video posted to Twitter in November. "Thanksgiving is such a special day during a very busy season. We want you to spend that day at home with family and loved ones." 

Other retailers have now followed suit, with Costco  (COST) , Aldi, and Target all saying they would close their doors for 24 hours on Easter Sunday, March 31. 

Now, the stores that operate under TJX Cos.  (TJX)  will also shut down during the holiday, including HomeGoods, TJ Maxx and Marshalls

Though it closed on Thanksgiving, Walmart says it will remain open for shoppers on Easter. 

Here's a list of stores that are closing for Easter 2024: 

  • Target
  • Costco
  • Aldi
  • TJ Maxx
  • Marshalls
  • HomeGoods
  • Publix
  • Macy's
  • Best Buy
  • Apple
  • ACE Hardware

Others are expected to remain open, including:

  • Walmart
  • Ikea
  • Petco
  • Home Depot

Most of the stores closing on Sunday will reopen for regular business hours on Monday.
