ROCKVILLE, Md., July 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: CBNK), the holding company for Capital Bank, N.A. (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $7.3 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2023, compared to net income of $9.7 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2023 and $11.5 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2022. Total average deposits increased $110.4 million, or 25.0% annualized, the average loan portfolio grew $50.3 million and the net interest margin of 6.63% for the second quarter 2023 remained stable when compared to 6.65% for the first quarter 2023. Adjusted net interest margin (excluding credit card and SBA-PPP loans) of 4.06% for the second quarter 2023 grew on the back of steady loan and deposit growth, excluding brokered time deposits, when compared to adjusted net interest margin of 3.81% for the first quarter 2023.

The Company also declared a cash dividend on its common stock of $0.08 per share. The dividend is payable on August 23, 2023 to shareholders of record on August 7, 2023. The dividend declared of $0.08 is $0.02, or 33.3% higher than the prior quarter dividend.

"We saw a significant number of positive signs in our performance this quarter and are making investments in our future,” said Ed Barry, Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank. “Core deposit growth remains a priority and we continue to see traction on building our franchise and in particular our noninterest-bearing deposits. Net interest margin was stable with adjusted net interest margin increasing as we continued to price loans based on the marginal cost of deposits to generate attractive spreads. OpenSky® open customer accounts increased, with growth in corresponding loan and deposit balances, as initiatives began to deliver. Credit remained stable and we maintain a well positioned balance sheet with a strong capital base in the current environment."

“Despite some of the year-over-year declines, the Board is pleased with Capital Bank’s performance during the quarter.” said Steven J. Schwartz, Chairman of the Company. “Our continued solid increases in tangible book value, average non-interest-bearing deposits, loans, and cardholders are a direct result of the Bank’s smart growth strategy. We are also pleased with the results of our continuing focus on maintaining outstanding capital and liquidity metrics, as reflected in our quarter-end numbers. Declines in EPS and ROE resulted primarily from a decision to invest more heavily in our credit card franchise, loan and deposit growth personnel and branding, as well as the industry-wide migration of our deposit book to more expensive products. We are gratified nonetheless that our net interest margin remains largely unaffected, and we believe the Bank continues to be well positioned for any macroeconomic challenges that may lie ahead.”

Improved interest income was offset by increased deposit costs that were a result of the rising interest rate environment and a shift within the portfolio from noninterest-bearing to interest-bearing deposits and increased time deposits and FHLB balances. Further, SBA-PPP income totaled $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 with no comparable amount in 2023. A decline in card fees of $3.2 million resulted in lower total noninterest income of $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $16.7 million for the same period in 2022.

Operating Results - Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net interest income of $35.3 million decreased slightly from $35.4 million in the same period in 2022, primarily due to significant increases in the cost of funding partially offset by increased average balances of $268.1 million in portfolio loans combined with a 64 basis point increase in yield for portfolio loans. The net interest margin decreased 43 basis points to 6.63% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from the same period in 2022 as the increase in the costs of deposits, including money market accounts and time deposits, outpaced the increase in portfolio loan yields, including credit cards. Further SBA-PPP income totaled $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 with no comparable amount in 2023. Net interest margin, excluding credit card and SBA-PPP loans, increased to 4.06% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 3.86% for the same period in 2022.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, average interest earning assets increased $125.0 million, or 6.2%, to $2.1 billion as compared to the same period in 2022, and the average yield on interest earning assets increased 117 basis points. Compared to the same period in the prior year, average interest-bearing liabilities increased $218.5 million, or 21.2%, and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 3.13%, a 268 basis point increase from 0.45%.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the provision for credit losses was $2.9 million, an increase of $0.8 million from the same period in 2022. Contributors to the increase in the provision were loan portfolio growth and change in credit card mix from fully secured to partially or fully unsecured. Net charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2023, were $1.6 million, or 0.35% on an annualized basis of average portfolio loans, compared to $0.9 million, or 0.23% on an annualized basis of average loans for the same period in 2022. Of the $1.6 million in net charge-offs during the quarter, $1.5 million related to secured and partially secured cards in the credit card portfolio and $0.1 million related to unsecured cards.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, noninterest income of $6.7 million decreased $1.7 million, or 20.0%, from the same period in 2022. Credit card fees declined by $1.5 million as the number of open customer accounts declined year over year, which resulted in lower interchange and other fee income compared to the prior year quarter.

Credit card loan balances, net of reserves, decreased by $19.2 million to $122.9 million as of June 30, 2023, from $142.2 million at June 30, 2022. The related deposit account balances decreased 12.9% to $186.6 million at June 30, 2023 when compared to $214.1 million at June 30, 2022 reflecting the reduction in the number of open customer accounts year over year.

The efficiency ratio for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was 70.41% compared to 62.00% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The change was due primarily to a decline in noninterest income from credit card fees and an increase in noninterest expense from salaries and employee benefits.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, noninterest expense of $29.6 million increased $2.5 million, or 9.1%, from the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily driven by increased salaries and employee benefits of $2.1 million.

Operating Results - Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net interest income of $69.8 million increased $1.1 million, or 1.6%, from the same period in 2022, primarily due to increased average balances of $256.0 million in portfolio loans combined with the 82 basis point increase in yield for portfolio loans offset by significant increases in the cost of funding. The net interest margin decreased 29 basis points to 6.64% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from the same period in 2022. Net interest margin, excluding credit card and SBA-PPP loans, was 3.94% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 3.84% for the same period in 2022.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, average interest earning assets increased $119.3 million, or 6.0%, to $2.1 billion as compared to the same period in 2022, and the average yield on interest earning assets increased 127 basis points. Compared to the same period in the prior year, average interest-bearing liabilities increased $203.8 million, or 19.6%, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 260 basis points to 3.03% from 0.43%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the provision for credit losses was $4.5 million, an increase of $1.5 million from the prior year, attributable primarily to the credit card portfolio. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2023, were $4.2 million, or 0.48% annualized of average portfolio loans, compared to $1.7 million, or 0.23% annualized of average portfolio loans, for the same period in 2022. The $4.2 million in net charge-offs during the six months ended June 30, 2023, was comprised primarily of credit card portfolio net charge-offs with $2.6 million related to secured and partially secured cards while $0.7 million was related to unsecured cards.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, noninterest income of $12.7 million decreased $3.9 million, or 23.6%, from the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by the decline in credit card fees of $3.2 million as the number of open customer accounts declined to 540,058 at June 30, 2023 from 616,435 year over year, which resulted in lower interchange and other fee income recognized compared to the prior year. The elevated interest rate environment continues to put pressure on the mortgage market, resulting in declines in home loan sales and home loan refinances, which has resulted in a $0.8 million decrease in mortgage banking revenue compared to the prior year.

The efficiency ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was 67.60% compared to 63.52% for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, noninterest expense of $55.8 million increased $1.6 million, or 2.9%, from the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily driven by a $4.3 million, or 21.2%, increase in salaries and benefits, partially offset by a $2.5 million, or 15.8%, decrease in data processing expense. The decrease of $2.5 million in data processing expense was the result of a contract renegotiation entered into in the first quarter 2022 in the OpenSky^® Division as well as fewer average open cards during the period.

Financial Condition

Total assets at June 30, 2023 were $2.2 billion, a decrease of $17.4 million, or 0.8%, from the balance at March 31, 2023 and an increase of $73.0 million, or 3.4%, from the balance at June 30, 2022. Net portfolio loans, which exclude mortgage loans held for sale and SBA-PPP loans, totaled $1.8 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $50.9 million, up 2.9% or 11.4% annualized, compared to March 31, 2023, and an increase of $229.4 million, or 14.3%, compared to $1.6 billion at June 30, 2022.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $4.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, which increased the allowance for credit losses to $27.5 million, or 1.5% of total loans at June 30, 2023, representing an increase of $1.3 million or 4.9%, from the balance at March 31, 2023. Nonperforming assets, which were comprised solely of nonperforming loans as of June 30, 2023, were $15.7 million, or 0.71% of total assets, down from $16.3 million, or 0.73% of total assets at March 31, 2023 and up from $7.3 million, or 0.34% of total assets at June 30, 2022.

Deposits were $1.9 billion at June 30, 2023, a slight decrease of $10.0 million, or 0.5%, from the balance at March 31, 2023 and an increase of $45.4 million, or 2.4%, from the balance at June 30, 2022. Average deposits of $1.9 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023, increased $110.4 million, or 6.2%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. Rising interest rates have resulted in some customers moving balances from noninterest-bearing deposit accounts to interest-bearing deposit accounts. As a result of the migration, average noninterest-bearing deposit balances decreased $131.2 million to $676.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. These deposits represented 35.8% of total deposits at June 30, 2023 compared to 44.6% at June 30, 2022. Uninsured deposits were approximately $860.4 million as of June 30, 2023, representing 44.5% of the Company's deposit portfolio, compared to $888.9 million, or 45.7%, at March 31, 2023, and $915.0 million, or 48.4%, at June 30, 2022.

Stockholders’ equity increased to $237.4 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $234.5 million at March 31, 2023 and $207.3 million at June 30, 2022. Shares repurchased and retired through June 30, 2023 as part of the Company's stock repurchase program totaled 285,344 shares at an average price of $17.65, for a total cost of $5.0 million including commissions. As of June 30, 2023, the Bank's capital ratios continued to exceed the regulatory requirements for a “well-capitalized” institution.
