NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

We, Summit Financial Group, Inc. and subsidiary, prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual year end financial statements.  In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature.

 

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. You should carefully consider each risk factor discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  The consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with our 2022 audited financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K. 

 

 

NOTE 2.  SIGNIFICANT NEW AUTHORITATIVE ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

 

Recently Adopted

 

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings in ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Additionally, ASU 2022-02 requires entities to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measured at Amortized Cost. ASU 2022-02 was effective for us on January 1, 2023 and its adoption did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

 

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Fair Value HedgingPortfolio Layer Method. ASU 2022-01 clarifies the guidance in ASC 815 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios of financial assets and is intended to better align hedge accounting with an organization’s risk management strategies. In 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-12 to better align the economic results of risk management activities with hedge accounting. One of the major provisions of that standard was the addition of the last-of-layer hedging method. For a closed portfolio of fixed-rate prepayable financial assets or one or more beneficial interests secured by a portfolio of prepayable financial instruments, such as mortgages or mortgage-backed securities, the last-of-layer method allows an entity to hedge its exposure to fair value changes due to changes in interest rates for a portion of the portfolio that is not expected to be affected by prepayments, defaults, and other events affecting the timing and amount of cash flows. ASU 2022-01 renames that method the portfolio layer method. ASU 2022-01 was effective January 1, 2023 and its adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The ASU requires entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. The amendments improve comparability after the business combination by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. The ASU was effective January 1, 2023 and its adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. It is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. The guidance was effective January 1, 2023 and its adoption did not have any material adverse impact to our business operation or financial results during the period of transition.

 

Pending Adoption

 

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method. These amendments allow reporting entities to elect to account for qualifying tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method, regardless of the program giving rise to the related income tax credits. The ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities in any interim period. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-02 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. ASU 2022-03 clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2022-03 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We do not intend to sell the above securities, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases.  We believe that this decline in value is primarily attributable to changes in market interest rates, and in some cases limited market liquidity and is not due to credit quality, as none of these securities are in default and all carry above investment grade ratings. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses has been recognized relative to these securities.

Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty


We adopted ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures effective January 1, 2023. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 eliminated the recognition and measurement of troubled debt restructurings and enhanced disclosures for loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.  During first quarter 2023, we modified 3 loans totaling $456,000, which we deem insignificant, there were no commitments to lend additional funds under these modifications, and the payment status of each loan was current as of March 31, 2023.

 

Troubled Debt Restructurings Prior to the Adoption of ASU 2022-02


During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we modified 6 loans totaling $335,000, which we deem insignificant, there were no commitments to lend additional funds under these modifications, and the payment status of each loan was current as of March 31, 2022.

Credit Quality Indicators: We categorize loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors. We analyze loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk.  We internally grade all commercial loans at the time of loan origination. In addition, we perform an annual loan review on all non-homogenous commercial loan relationships with an aggregate exposure of $5.0 million, at which time these loans are re-graded. We use the following definitions for our risk grades:

 

Pass: Loans graded as Pass are loans to borrowers of acceptable credit quality and risk. They are higher quality loans that do not fit any of the other categories described below.

 

Special Mention:  Commercial loans categorized as Special Mention are potentially weak. The credit risk may be relatively minor yet represent a risk given certain specific circumstances. If the potential weaknesses are not monitored or mitigated, the asset may weaken or inadequately protect our position in the future.

 

Substandard: Commercial loans categorized as Substandard are inadequately protected by the borrower’s ability to repay, equity and/or the collateral pledged to secure the loan. These loans have identified weaknesses that could hinder normal repayment or collection of the debt. These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the identified weaknesses are not mitigated.

 

Doubtful:  Commercial loans categorized as Doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those loans classified as Substandard, with the added elements that the full collection of the loan is improbable and the possibility of loss is high.

 

23

 

Loss:  Loans classified as loss are considered to be non-collectible and of such little value that their continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. This does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but rather it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off the loan, even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future.

 

Management considers the guidance in ASC 310-20 when determining whether a modification, extension, or renewal of loan constitutes a current period origination. Generally, current period renewals of credit are reunderwritten at the point of renewal and considered current period originations for purposes of the table below. As of  March 31, 2023 and  December 31, 2022, based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans based on year of origination is as follows:

NOTE 7.  GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Goodwill and certain other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized into net income over an estimated life, but rather are tested at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets determined to have definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives and also are subject to impairment testing. Our goodwill totaled $55.3 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

The following table presents the balance of our other intangible assets at  March 31, 2023 and  December 31, 2022.

Long-term borrowings:  Our long-term borrowings of $653,000 and $658,000 at  March 31, 2023 and  December 31, 2022, respectively, consisted of a 5.34% fixed rate advance from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), maturing in 2026. This FHLB advance is collateralized by a blanket lien of $1.84 billion of residential mortgage loans, certain commercial loans, mortgage backed securities and securities of U.S. Government agencies and corporations.

 

Subordinated debentures: We issued $75 million of subordinated debentures, net of $1.74 million debt issuance costs, during fourth quarter 2021 in a private placement transaction, which had a net balance of $73.7 million at  March 31, 2023 and   December 31, 2022. The subordinated debt qualifies as Tier 2 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines, until the debt is within 5 years of its maturity; thereafter the amount qualifying as Tier 2 capital is reduced by 20 percent each year until maturity. This subordinated debt bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.25% per year, from and including November 16, 2021 to, but excluding, December 1, 2026, payable semi-annually in arrears. From and including December 1, 2026 to, but excluding, the maturity date or earlier redemption date, the interest rate will reset quarterly at a variable rate equal to the then current three-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 230 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears. This debt has a 10 years term and generally, is not prepayable by us within the first five years.

 

We issued $30 million of subordinated debentures, net of $681,000 debt issuance costs, during third quarter 2020 in a private placement transaction, which had a net balance of $29.7 million at March 31, 2023 and $29.6 million at  December 31, 2022. The subordinated debt qualifies as Tier 2 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines, until the debt is within 5 years of its maturity; thereafter the amount qualifying as Tier 2 capital is reduced by 20 percent each year until maturity. This subordinated debt bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.00% per year, from and including September 22, 2020 to, but excluding, September 30, 2025, payable quarterly in arrears. From and including September 30, 2025 to, but excluding, the maturity date or earlier redemption date, the interest rate will reset quarterly at a variable rate equal to the then current three-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 487 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears. This debt has a 10 years term and generally, is not prepayable by us within the first five years.

Subordinated debentures owed to unconsolidated subsidiary trusts:  We have three statutory business trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing mandatorily redeemable securities (the “capital securities”) for which we are obligated to third party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the capital securities in our junior subordinated debentures (the “debentures”).  The debentures held by the trusts are their sole assets.  These subordinated debentures totaled $19.6 million at  March 31, 2023 and  December 31, 2022.

 

The capital securities held by SFG Capital Trust I, SFG Capital Trust II, and SFG Capital Trust III qualify as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines.  In accordance with these Guidelines, trust preferred securities generally are limited to 25% of Tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill.  The amount of trust preferred securities and certain other elements in excess of the limit can be included in Tier 2 capital.

 

A summary of the maturities of all long-term borrowings and subordinated debentures for the next five years and thereafter is as follows:

NOTE 10.  SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Under the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2014 LTIP”), SARs and RSUs have generally been granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of Summit's common stock on the grant date. We periodically grant SARs and RSUs to individual employees.

 

During first quarter 2023, we granted 67,637 SARs with an $8.77 grant date fair value per SAR that become exercisable ratably over seven years (14.3% per year) and expire ten years after the grant date. Also during 2023, we granted 108,747 SARs with an $8.63 grant date fair value per SAR that become exercisable ratably over five years (20% per year) and expire ten years after the grant date.

 

The fair value of our SARs granted under the Plans is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, changes to which can materially affect the fair value estimate. Additionally, there may be other factors that would otherwise have a significant effect on the value of SARs granted but are not considered by the model. Because our SARs have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its SARs at the time of grant. The assumptions used to value SARs granted in 2023 are as follows:

 

  

2023 grant with 7 year expiration

  

2023 grant with 5 year expiration

 

Risk-free interest rate

  3.79%  3.87%

Expected dividend yield

  3.00%  3.00%

Expected common stock volatility

Expected life (in years)

We recognize compensation expense based on the estimated number of stock awards expected to actually vest, exclusive of the awards expected to be forfeited.  During the first three months of 2023 and 2022, total stock compensation expense for all share-based arrangements was $196,000 and $169,000 and the related deferred tax benefits were approximately $47,000 and $41,000. At March 31, 2023 our total unrecognized compensation expense related to all nonvested awards not yet recognized totaled $3.0 million and on a weighted average basis, will be recognized over the next 2.57 years.

NOTE 11.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We are a party to certain financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers.  These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial position.  The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement that we have in this class of financial instruments.

 

Many of our lending relationships contain both funded and unfunded elements.  The funded portion is reflected on our balance sheet.  The unfunded portion of these commitments is not recorded on our balance sheet until a draw is made under the loan facility.  Since many of the commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash flow requirements.

 

A summary of the total unfunded, or off-balance sheet, credit extension commitments follows:

 

  

March 31,

 

Dollars in thousands

 

2023

 

Commitments to extend credit:

    

Revolving home equity and credit card lines

 $104,427 

Construction loans

  242,542 

Other loans

  504,056 

Standby letters of credit

  56,732 

Total

 $907,757 

 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.  We evaluate each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis.  The amount of collateral obtained, if we deem necessary upon extension of credit, is based on our credit evaluation.  Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, equipment or real estate.

 

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.  Standby letters of credit generally are contingent upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party.

 

Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments.

 

Allowance For Credit Losses - Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Exposures

 

The provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments was $(375,000) and $1.12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The ACL on off-balance-sheet credit exposures totaled $6.57 million at March 31, 2023 compared to $6.95 million at  December 31, 2022 and is included in other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Litigation

 

We are not a party to litigation except for matters that arise in the normal course of business.  While it is impossible to ascertain the ultimate resolution or range of financial liability, if any, with respect to these contingent matters, in the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of these matters will not have a significant adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 12. PREFERRED STOCK

 

In April 2021, we sold through a private placement 1,500 shares or $15.0 million of Series 2021 6% Fixed-Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value, with a liquidation preference of $10,000 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock is non-convertible and will pay noncumulative dividends, if and when declared by the Summit board of directors, at a rate of 6.0% per annum. Dividends declared will be payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of March, June, September and December of each year.

 

 

NOTE 13.  REGULATORY MATTERS

 

Our bank subsidiary, Summit Community Bank, Inc. (“Summit Community”), is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the banking regulatory agencies. Under the capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Summit Community must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.  Our bank subsidiary’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Summit Community to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Common Equity Tier 1("CET1"), Total capital and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined).  We believe, as of March 31, 2023, that our bank subsidiary met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject.

 

The most recent notifications from the banking regulatory agencies categorized Summit Community as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  To be categorized as well capitalized, Summit Community must maintain minimum CET1, Total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below.

 

In December 2018, the federal bank regulatory agencies approved a final rule modifying their regulatory capital rules to provide an option to phase-in over a period of three years the day-one regulatory capital effects of the implementation of ASC 326. In March 2020, those agencies approved a final rule providing an option to delay the estimated impact on regulatory capital. We elected this optional phase-in period upon adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2020 and elected to delay the estimated impact. The initial impact of adoption as well as 25% of the quarterly increases in the allowance for credit losses subsequent to adoption (collectively the “transition adjustments”) will be delayed for two years. After two years, the cumulative amount of the transition adjustments will become fixed and will be phased out of the regulatory capital calculations evenly over a three year period, with 75% recognized in year three, 50% recognized in year four, and 25% recognized in year five. After five years, the temporary regulatory capital benefits will be fully reversed.

 

The following tables present Summit's, as well as Summit Community's, actual and required minimum regulatory capital amounts and ratios as of  March 31, 2023 and  December 31, 2022.

 

Capital levels required to be considered well capitalized are based upon prompt corrective action regulations, as amended.

NOTE  14.  DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Cash flow hedges

 

We have entered into two pay-fixed/receive LIBOR interest rate swaps as follows:

 

 

A $20 million notional interest rate swap with an effective date of October 18, 2021 and expiring on October 18, 2023, was designated as a cash flow hedge of $20 million of variable rate Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Under the terms of this swap we will pay a fixed rate of 1.07% and receive a variable rate equal to three month LIBOR.

 

 

A $20 million notional interest rate swap with an effective date of October 18, 2021 and expiring on October 18, 2024, was designated as a cash flow hedge of $20 million of variable rate Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Under the terms of this swap we will pay a fixed rate of 1.1055% and receive a variable rate equal to three month LIBOR.

 

In addition, we have entered into two interest rate caps as follows:

 

 

A $100 million notional interest rate cap with an effective date of July 20, 2020 and expiring on April 18, 2030, was designated as a cash flow hedge of $100 million of fixed rate Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Under the terms of this cap we will hedge the variability of cash flows when three month LIBOR is above .75%.

 

 

A $100 million notional interest rate cap with an effective date of December 29, 2020 and expiring on December 18, 2025, was designated as a cash flow hedge of $100 million of certain indexed interest bearing demand deposit accounts. Under the terms of this cap we will hedge the variability of cash flows when the indexed rate of SOFR is above 0.50%.

 

Fair value hedges

 

We have entered into two pay fixed/receive variable interest rate swaps to hedge fair value variability of two commercial fixed rate loans with the same principal, amortization, and maturity terms of the underlying loans, which are designated as fair value hedges with a total original notional amount of $21.3 million.

 

We have also entered into a pay fixed/receive variable interest rate swap to hedge the fair value variability of certain available for sale taxable muncipal securities, which is designated as a fair value hedge with a total original notional amount of $71.2 million.

NOTE 18. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

On April 1, 2023, Summit acquired 100% of the ownership of PSB Holding Corp. (“PSB”), headquartered in Preston, Maryland.  PSB merged with and into Summit, with Summit as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). Immediately following the Merger, Provident State Bank, Inc., PSB’s wholly owned banking subsidiary, merged with and into Summit’s wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Summit Community Bank, Inc. (“Summit Community Bank”).  Each PSB shareholder received 1.2347 shares of Summit common stock for each outstanding share of PSB common stock representing $39.0 million stock consideration,or 1,880,732 shares of Summit common stock.  In addition, cash consideration of $596,000 was paid for settlement of outstanding stock options and payments for fractional shares.  PSB's assets and liabilities approximated $568 million and $528 million respectively.  The transaction will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and is deemed immaterial to our financial statements.

 

The former Provident State Bank offices will continue to operate under that name until late- September 2023, after which they will operate under the name Summit Community Bank.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

INTRODUCTION

 

The following discussion and analysis focuses on significant changes in our financial condition and results of operations of Summit Financial Group, Inc. (“Company” or “Summit”) and its operating subsidiary, Summit Community Bank (“Summit Community”), for the periods indicated.   This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

The Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 indicates that the disclosure of forward-looking information is desirable for investors and encourages such disclosure by providing a safe harbor for forward-looking statements by us.  This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains comments or information that constitute forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995) that are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Words such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will”, “should”, “would” and “could” are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.

 

Although we believe the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially. Factors that might cause such a difference include: current and future economic and market conditions, including the effects of declines in housing prices, high unemployment rates, U.S. fiscal debt, budget and tax matters, geopolitical matters, and any slowdown in global economic growth; overall levels of inflation; fiscal and monetary policies of the Federal Reserve; future provisions for credit losses on loans and debt securities; changes in nonperforming assets; changes in interest rates and interest rate relationships; demand for products and services; the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors; the successful integration of operations of our acquisitions; changes in banking laws and regulations; changes in tax laws; the impact of technological advances; the outcomes of contingencies; trends in customer behavior as well as their ability to repay loans; and changes in the national and local economies. We undertake no obligation to revise these statements following the date of this filing.

 

 

OVERVIEW

 

Our primary source of income is net interest income from loans and deposits.  Business volumes tend to be influenced by the overall economic factors including market interest rates, business spending, and consumer confidence, as well as competitive conditions within the marketplace. 

 

During the first quarter of 2023, the banking industry experienced significant volatility following two high-profile bank failures resulting in industry-wide concerns related to liquidity, deposit outflows, unrealized securities losses and eroding consumer confidence in the banking system. Despite these negative industry developments, our liquidity position and balance sheet remains robust. The Company’s total deposits increased 4.1% compared to December 31, 2022, to $3.3 billion at March 31, 2023 as we experienced minimal deposit outflow in the first quarter.  The Company’s capital remains at high levels with CET1, Total Capital and Leverage ratios of 8.9%, 14.0% and 8.7%, respectively, as of March 31, 2023 compared to 8.6%, 13.5% and 8.5%, respectively, at December 31, 2022.

 

Further, during the first quarter 2023, Summit's Tangible Book Value Per Common Share ("TBVPCS") increased $1.20 to $22.90. TBVPCS was negatively impacted by unrealized net losses on interest rate caps and swaps held as hedges against higher interest rates totaling $0.32 per common share (net of deferred income taxes) recorded in OCI. However, these losses were more than offset by unrealized net gains on debt securities available for sale of $0.59 per common share (net of deferred income taxes), also recorded in OCI, in the same period.  While TBVPCS is a non-GAAP financial measure, we believe TBVPCS provides a meaningful alternative measure of capital strength and performance for investors, industry analysts and others.  See reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure in NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES below.

 

Average interest earning assets increased by 9.2% for the first three months in 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 while our net interest earnings on a tax equivalent basis increased 16.0%.  Our tax equivalent net interest margin increased 22 basis points as our yield on interest earning assets increased 163 basis points while our cost of interest bearing funds increased 171 basis points.

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and follow general practices within the financial services industry.  Application of these principles requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes.  These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments.  Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.

 

Our most significant accounting policies are presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  These policies, along with the other disclosures presented in the financial statement notes and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined.

 

Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, we have identified the determination of ACL, fair value measurements and accounting for acquired loans to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments and as such could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available. Refer to Note 6 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2022 Form 10-K for a discussion of the methodology we employ regarding the ACL.

 

For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to Critical Accounting Policies section in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2022 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in our application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2022.

 

 

 

 

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and also present certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items or otherwise include components that differ from the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are provided as additional useful information to assess our financial condition and results of operations (including period-to-period operating performance). These non-GAAP measures are not intended as a substitute for GAAP financial measures and may not be defined or calculated the same way as non-GAAP measures with similar names used by other companies. For more information, including the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their corresponding GAAP financial measures, see the respective sections where the measures are presented.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

 

Earnings Summary

 

Net income applicable to common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $13.9 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, compared to $11.5 million, or $0.90 per diluted share for the same period of 2022.   The increased earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were primarily attributable to increased net interest income due to our growth. Returns on average equity and assets for the first three months of 2023 were 15.55% and 1.43%, respectively, compared with 14.20% and 1.30% for the same period of 2022.

 

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income is the principal component of our earnings and represents the difference between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds.  Fluctuations in interest rates as well as changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities can materially impact net interest income.

 

Q1 2023 compared to Q4 2022

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, our net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis decreased $163,000 to $34.6 million compared to $34.7 million for the quarter end December 31, 2022. Our taxable-equivalent earnings on interest earning assets increased $2.6 million, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities increased $2.8 million (see Tables I and II).

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, average interest earning assets increased to $3.66 billion compared to $3.63 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2022, while average interest bearing liabilities increased to $2.98 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $2.94 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, our net interest margin increased to 3.83%, compared to 3.80% for the linked quarter, as the yields on earning assets increased 37 basis points and the cost of our interest bearing funds increased by 40 basis points. Excluding the impact of accretion and amortization of fair value acquisition accounting adjustments related to the interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities acquired by merger, Summit's net interest margin was 3.82% and 3.78% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, our net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis increased $4.8 million to $34.6 million compared to $29.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Our taxable-equivalent earnings on interest earning assets increased $17.7 million, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities increased $12.9 million (see Tables I and II).

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, average interest earning assets increased 9.2% to $3.66 billion compared to $3.35 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2022, while average interest bearing liabilities increased 12.8% from $2.64 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $2.98 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, our net interest margin increased to 3.83%, compared to 3.61% for the same period of 2022, as the yields on earning assets increased 163 basis points, while the cost of our interest bearing funds increased by 171 basis points.

Provision for Credit Losses

 

Provision for credit losses is determined by management as the amount to be added to the allowance for credit loss accounts for various types of financial instruments including loans, securities and off-balance-sheet credit exposure after net charge-offs have been deducted to bring the allowance to a level which, in management’s best estimate, is necessary to absorb expected credit losses over the lives of the respective financial instruments.

 

 

We recorded $1.5 million and $2.0 million provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.  The following table summarizes the changes in the various factors that comprise the components of credit loss expense.

Salaries, commissions, and employee benefits: The increases in these expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 are primarily due to general merit raises and higher group health insurance premiums.

 

Acquisition-related expenses: Acquisition-related expenses increased during 2023 due to the PSB transaction which closed on April 1, 2023.

 

Other: The increase in other expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same periods of 2022 is largely due to the following:

 

 

Deferred director compensation plan-related income of $164,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $400,000 in the comparable period of 2022 as a result of the stock market's overall declined performance during 2023. Under the plan, the directors optionally defer their director fees into a "phantom" investment plan whereby the company recognizes expense or benefit relative to the phantom returns or losses of such investments.  During Q3 2022, we purchased investments to hedge the changes in the Plan participants’ phantom investments which should serve to significantly reduce period-to-period volatility of the Plan’s impact on our statements of income.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, Virginia franchise tax increased to $290,000 compared to $149,000 for the same period of 2022 primarily due to our balance sheet growth.

 

 

 

Income Taxes

 

Our income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 totaled $3.6 million and $3.3 million, respectively.  Our effective tax rate (income tax expense as a percentage of income before taxes) for the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was 20.2% and 21.8%, respectively. Refer to Note 16 of the accompanying financial statements for further information regarding our income taxes.

 

 

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The following is a discussion of the significant changes in our financial position during the first three months of 2023:

 

Cash and cash equivalents: Net increase of $26.1 million is primarily attributable to increased customer deposits.

 

Debt securities available for sale: The net increase of $26.7 million in debt securities available for sale is principally attributable to purchases of mortgage-backed securities.

 

 

Loans: Mortgage warehouse lines of credit declined $44.2 million during the first three months of 2023 due to a reduction in size of our participation arrangement with a regional bank to fund residential mortgage warehouse lines of medium- and large-sized mortgage originators located throughout the United States. Excluding mortgage warehouse lines of credit, loan growth was $61.3 million during the first three months of 2023.

 

Derivative financial instruments: The 2023 decrease in derivative financial instruments is due to the decrease in the fair value of our cash flow and interest rate hedges.

 

Deposits: During the first three months of 2023, noninterest bearing checking deposits decreased $901,000 and interest bearing checking deposits grew $142.7 million, as we increased new commercial account relationships while brokered CDs increased $38.7 million, savings deposits declined $34.1 million and retail CDs decreased $16.4 million.

 

Shareholders' equity - common: Changes in common shareholders' equity are a result of net income, other comprehensive income and common dividends. Refer to the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity of the accompanying financial statements for further details.  Tangible book value per common share (“TBVPCS”) increased $1.20 to $22.90 during the quarter, which included unrealized net gains on debt securities available for sale of $0.59 per common share (net of deferred income taxes) recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”), partially offset by decreases in the fair values of derivative financial instruments hedging against higher interest rates totaling $0.32 per common share (net of deferred income taxes) also recorded in OCI. 

 

Refer to Notes 5, 6, 8, and 9 of the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information with regard to changes in the composition of our securities, loans, deposits and borrowings between March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

 

Credit Experience

 

For purposes of this discussion, nonperforming assets include foreclosed properties, other repossessed assets, and nonperforming loans, which is comprised of loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest and nonaccrual loans. 

 

The provision for credit losses represents charges to earnings necessary to maintain an adequate allowance to cover an estimate of the full amount of expected credit losses relative to loans. Our determination of the appropriate level of the allowance is based on an ongoing analysis of credit quality and loss potential in the loan portfolio, change in the composition and risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, and the anticipated influence of national and local economic conditions.  The adequacy of the allowance for loan credit losses is reviewed quarterly and adjustments are made as considered necessary.

 

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our allowance for loan credit losses totaled $40.8 million, or 1.32% of total loans and $38.9 million, or 1.26% of total loans. The allowance for loan credit losses is considered adequate to cover an estimate of the full amount of expected credit losses relative to loans.

 

We incurred net loan recoveries of $63,000 in the first three months of 2023 (0.01 percent of average loans annualized), compared to $509,000 net loan charge-offs during the first three months of 2022 (0.07 percent of average loans annualized) . 

 

 

As illustrated in Table IX below, our non-performing assets have decreased since year end 2022.

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 we had approximately $5.1 million foreclosed properties which were obtained as the result of foreclosure proceedings.  Although foreclosed property is recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell, the prices ultimately realized upon their sale may or may not result in us recognizing additional gains or losses.

 

 

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Liquidity reflects our ability to ensure the availability of adequate funds to meet loan commitments and deposit withdrawals, as well as provide for other transactional requirements.  Liquidity is provided primarily by funds invested in cash and due from banks (net of float and reserves), Federal funds sold, non-pledged securities, and available lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, which combined totaled approximately $1.7 billion or 41.77% of total consolidated assets at March 31, 2023.

 

Our liquidity strategy is to fund loan growth with deposits and other borrowed funds while maintaining an adequate level of short- and medium-term investments to meet normal daily loan and deposit activity.  As a member of the FHLB, we have access to approximately $1.29 billion.  As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, these advances totaled approximately $141 million and $228 million, respectively.  At March 31, 2023, we had additional borrowing capacity of $1.15 billion through FHLB programs.  We have established a line with the Federal Reserve Bank to be used as a contingency liquidity vehicle.  The amount available on this line at March 31, 2023 was approximately $265 million, which is secured by a pledge of certain consumer and our commercial and industrial loan portfolios.  We have a $6 million unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank.  Also, we have a $432 million portfolio of available for sale debt securities which can be liquidated to meet liquidity needs.

 

Liquidity risk represents the risk of loss due to the possibility that funds may not be available to satisfy current or future commitments based on external market issues, customer or creditor perception of financial strength, and events unrelated to Summit such as war, terrorism, pandemic or financial institution market specific issues.  The Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), comprised of members of senior management and certain members of the Board of Directors, oversees our liquidity risk management process.   The ALCO develops and recommends policies and limits governing our liquidity to the Board of Directors for approval with the objective of ensuring that we can obtain cost-effective funding to meet current and future obligations, as well as maintain sufficient levels of on-hand liquidity, under both normal and “stressed” circumstances.

 

We continuously monitor our liquidity position to ensure that day-to-day as well as anticipated funding needs are met.  We are not aware of any trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that have resulted in or are reasonably likely to result in a material change to our liquidity.

 

One of our continuous goals is maintenance of a strong capital position.  Through management of our capital resources, we seek to provide an attractive financial return to our shareholders while retaining sufficient capital to support future growth.  Shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2023 totaled $369.5 million compared to $354.5 million at December 31, 2022.

 

Refer to Note 13 of the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding regulatory restrictions on our capital as well as Summit Community's capital.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Market Risk Management

 

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices.  Interest rate risk is our primary market risk and results from timing differences in the repricing of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments, changes in relationships between rate indices and the potential exercise of imbedded options.  The principal objective of asset/liability management is to minimize interest rate risk and our actions in this regard are taken under the guidance of our Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is comprised of members of senior management and members of the Board of Directors.  The ALCO actively formulates the economic assumptions that we use in our financial planning and budgeting process and establishes policies which control and monitor our sources, uses and prices of funds.

 

Some amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate to the banking business.  Our net income is affected by changes in the absolute level of interest rates.  Our interest rate risk position is asset sensitive. That is, absent any changes in the volumes of our interest earning assets or interest bearing liabilities, assets are likely to reprice faster than liabilities, resulting in an increase in net income in a rising rate environment.  Net income would decrease in a falling interest rate environment.  Net income is also subject to changes in the shape of the yield curve.  In general, a flattening yield curve would decrease our earnings due to the compression of earning asset yields and funding rates, while a steepening would increase earnings as margins widen.

 

Several techniques are available to monitor and control the level of interest rate risk.  We control interest rate risk principally by matching the maturities of our interest earning assets with similar maturing interest bearing liabilities and by hedging adverse risk exposures with derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps. We primarily use earnings simulations modeling to monitor interest rate risk.  The earnings simulation model forecasts the effects on net interest income under a variety of interest rate scenarios that incorporate changes in the absolute level of interest rates and changes in the shape of the yield curve.  Each increase or decrease in interest rates is assumed to gradually take place over the next 12 months (as footnoted in table below), and then remain stable.  Assumptions used to project yields and rates for new loans and deposits are derived from historical analysis.  Securities portfolio maturities and prepayments are reinvested in like instruments.  Mortgage loan prepayment assumptions are developed from industry estimates of prepayment speeds.  Noncontractual deposit repricings are modeled on historical patterns.

 

The following table presents the estimated sensitivity of our net interest income to changes in interest rates, as measured by our earnings simulation model as of March 31, 2023.  The sensitivity is measured as a percentage change in net interest income given the stated changes in interest rates (change over 12 months, stable thereafter, see footnotes below) compared to net interest income with rates unchanged in the same period.  The estimated changes set forth below are dependent on the assumptions discussed above.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted as of March 31, 2023, an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e).  Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023 were effective.  There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
