IDAHO FALLS, ID / ACCESSWIRE / July 26, 2024 / Bank of Idaho Holding Company (the "Company") (OTCQX:BOID), the holding company for Bank of Idaho (the "Bank"), today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The Company reported consolidated net income of $2,586,000, or $0.58 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024 after recording a one-time tax expense of $425,000 in the second quarter related to the remeasurement to its deferred tax asset. Prior to the adjustment, earnings for the second quarter of 2024 were $3,011,000, or $0.68 per diluted share. This compares to $3,067,000, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, and $2,274,000 or $0.51 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023.

"We are pleased to announce a strong second quarter with Bank of Idaho generating $4.6 million in pre-tax, pre-provision income and $0.68 adjusted earnings per share. Our commitment to prioritizing credit, pricing, and expense discipline continues to provide strong results for our shareholders," said Jeff Newgard, Chairman, President, and CEO of Bank of Idaho. "We are proud to serve dynamic geographic markets, which produce strong loan growth. We remain confident for the remainder of 2024 and beyond and intend to capitalize on emerging opportunities."

Quarterly Summary

• Loans held for investment grew $47.1 million, or 5.1%, in Q2 2024 and increased $182.2 million, or 23.3%, from Q2 2023.

• Total core deposits increased $75.9 million, or 8.0%, in Q2 2024 and were up $131.1 million, or 14.7%, from Q2 2023.

• Pre-tax, pre-provision ("PTPP") net income was $4.57 million in Q2 2024, compared to $4.76 million in Q1 2024 and $3.66 million in Q2 2023.

Operating Results

Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $2,586,000, or $0.58 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3,067,000, or $0.69 per diluted share, for Q1 2024, and $2,274,000, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the same quarter last year. The decrease from the prior quarter was the result of a one-time tax expense of $425,000 related to the remeasurement of the Company's deferred tax asset.

Net interest income for Q2 2024 was $12.6 million, an increase of $265,000, or 2.1%, from the prior quarter as interest income outpaced the increases in interest expense. Net interest income grew $790,000, or 6.7%, from the same period in the prior year.

Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2024 was 4.19% compared to 4.43% in the previous quarter and 4.82% for the same quarter last year. While there continues to be margin pressure from the Fed's restrictive rate policy and liquidity tightening mandate, we see healthy loan demand at attractive rates. While the cost of funding increases, the growth in earning assets at current market yields should outpace funding cost pressures.

Noninterest income, including net gains and losses, for Q2 2024 was $1,028,000, a decrease of $169,000, or 14.1%, from $1,197,000 in Q1 2024. The decrease was attributable to a $145,000 loss for a municipal security being called. Relative to the second quarter of 2023, noninterest income decreased $62,000, or 5.7%.

Noninterest expense of $9.06 million in Q2 2024 was an increase of $286,000, or 3.3%, from $8.77 million in Q1 2024 and a $182,000, or 2.0%, decrease from $9.24 million in Q2 2023. The increase from Q1 2024 was due to one-time personnel expenses of $75,000 and variable compensation of $90,000 due to increased loan production. The Company's efficiency ratio was 64.8% for Q2 2024, compared to 64.0% for Q1 2024, and 70.5% for Q2 2023.

Total assets were $1.29 billion as of June 30, 2024, an increase of $100.6 million, or 8.5%, from $1.19 billion at March 31, 2024. Second quarter 2024 balance sheet growth was driven by growth in portfolio loans of $47.1 million, or 5.1%. Loans were funded by the growth in deposits of $77.2 million, or 7.8%. Cash and cash equivalents increased $43.4 million along with an increase of $21.0 million in total borrowings.

Loans held for investment were $963.8 million as of June 30, 2024, an increase of $47.1 million, or 5.1%, from $916.7 million as of March 31, 2024, and an increase of $182.2 million, or 23.3%, from $781.6 million as of June 30, 2023. The increase in total loans from the previous quarter came from growth in all loan categories, the largest coming from an increase in the Bank's commercial and commercial real estate loans. We continue to see significant lending opportunities across our markets.

Deposits were $1,069.0 million as of June 30, 2024, up $77.2 million, or 7.8%, from the previous quarter, and up $175.3 million, or 19.6%, from the same quarter last year. The growth in our deposits is primarily in interest bearing products as customers continue to seek yield on their deposits. While we are successful in attracting deposits within our markets, deposits come at an elevated cost due competition from both bank and non-bank organizations. Noninterest bearing deposits represented 27% of total deposits and 28% of core deposits as of June 30, 2024, compared to 30% as of March 31, 2024, and 36% as of June 30, 2023.

Borrowings were $84.2 million as of June 30, 2024, which consisted of $24.6 million of Company subordinated debt, $24.6 million of BTFP advances, and $35.0 million of FHLB borrowings compared to $24.6 million of Company subordinated debt, $24.6 million of BTFP advances, and $14.0 million of FHLB borrowings in the previous quarter.

Asset quality remained strong in Q2 2024. Nonaccrual loans, excluding government guaranteed balances, totaled $2,351,000, or 0.24% of loans, as of June 30, 2024, compared to $2,194,000, or 0.19% of loans, as of March 31, 2024, and $269,000, or 0.03% of loans, as of June 30, 2023. The Company had no OREO for Q2 2024, Q1 2024, or Q2 2023.

The Allowance for Credit Losses ("ACL") totaled $11.8 million, or 1.23% of loans held for investment, as of June 30, 2024. The Company recorded $497,000 in provision for loan loss expense in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $645,000 in provision expense in the previous quarter, and $520,000 in provision in the second quarter of 2023. The Company recorded net charge-offs of $47,000 in the second quarter of 2024 bringing year-to-date net charge-offs to $126,000 or annualized 2.7 basis points of average loans.

Capital ratios of the Company and Bank continue to exceed the "well-capitalized" capital levels set by our respective regulators. As of June 30, 2024, the Bank's Tier 1 leverage ratio was 11.57% and the total risk-based capital ratio was 14.82%. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had tangible common equity (total stockholders' equity less intangible assets) of $114.8 million and tangible book value per share of $25.90. Tangible common equity increased $3.403 million in Q2 2024 due to quarterly earnings of $2.586 million and a $470,000 improvement to accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") related to decreased unrealized losses on our securities portfolio. The Company's tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 8.97% as of June 30, 2024, down from 9.42% in the previous quarter. There were no paid dividends during Q2 2024 or in any quarter presented.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the financial measures included in this press release are not measures of financial performance recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures include "efficiency ratio," "tangible common equity," "tangible common equity to tangible assets," "tangible book value per share," and "pre-tax pre-provision net income." Efficiency ratio is computed by dividing total noninterest expense, including intangible expense, by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income, including gains and losses. Tangible common equity is computed by subtracting goodwill and core deposit intangibles from total stockholders' equity. Tangible common equity to tangible assets is computed by dividing total assets, less goodwill and core deposit intangibles, by tangible common equity. Tangible book value per share is computed by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding. Pre-tax, pre-provision net income is computed by adding provision for loan loss expense and income tax expense to net income. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide both management and investors with a more complete understanding of the Company's financial position and performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP financial measures. Not all companies use the same calculation of these measures; therefore, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as presented by other companies.
