SANDUSKY, Ohio, April 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Civista Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ:CIVB) ("Civista") announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ending March 31, 2023.

First quarter highlights

Net income of $12.9 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $8.5 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022.
Low cost of deposits of 49 basis points and total funding costs of 114 basis points for the quarter.
Based on the March 31, 2023 market close share price of $16.88, the $0.14 first quarter dividend is equivalent to an annualized yield of 3.32% and a dividend payout ratio of 17.07%.
On January 1, 2023, Civista adopted ASC 326 ("CECL") which resulted in an adjustment to the reserve of approximately $4.3 million and an additional $3.4 million reserve for unfunded commitments.

"With all the turmoil in the industry, strong core deposit franchises like Civista, matter again. Our deposit base is well diversified, with no concentrations and approximately 83 percent of our deposits are insured. It's these core deposits that drive our better than peer net interest margin and strong profitability. Our net interest margin for the quarter was 4.11% and our ROAA was 1.47%," said Dennis G. Shaffer, CEO and President of Civista.

Results of Operations:

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 and 2022

Net interest income increased $9.7 million, or 42.2%, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022, due to an increase in interest income partially offset by an increase in interest expense. Noninterest income also increased due primarily to the addition of lease revenue and residual income related to the acquisition of VFG.

Net interest margin increased 73 basis points to 4.11% for the first quarter of 2023, compared to 3.38% for the same period a year ago.

Interest income increased by $16.9 million, or 68.4%, for the first quarter of 2023, compared to the same period last year. The increase in interest income was driven by an increase of $397.3 million in average earning assets and to a 159-basis point increase in yield on average earning assets. The increase in average earning assets and the increase in yield contributed to the increase in interest income by $7.4 million and $9.5 million, respectively.

Interest expense increased $7.2 million, or 415.5%, for the first quarter of 2023, compared to the same period last year. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased 126 basis points, while average interest-bearing liabilities increased $379.3 million. Interest expense increased $4.4 million due to the increase in average liabilities and increased $2.8 million due to the increase in cost of liabilities.

* Average yields are presented on a tax equivalent basis. The tax equivalent effect associated with loans and investments, included in the yields above, was $601 thousand and $467 thousand for the periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

** Average balance includes nonaccrual loans

*** Average yield on investments were calculated by adjusting the average balances of taxable and nontaxable securities by unrealized losses of $63.2 million in 2023 and by unrealized gains of $7.6 million in 2022. These adjustments were also made when calculating the yield on earning assets and the margin.

On January 1, 2023, Civista adopted CECL, which resulted in an adjustment to the reserve of approximately $4.3 million and an additional $3.4 million reserve for unfunded commitments. Provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2023 was $620 thousand compared to $300 thousand for the first quarter of 2022. The reserve ratio increased to 1.33% as of March 31, 2023 from 1.12% at December 31, 2022. Provision for unfunded commitments for the first quarter of 2023 was $201 thousand. There was no provision for unfunded commitments in the first quarter of 2022..

For the first quarter of 2023, noninterest income totaled $11.1 million, a decrease of $3.4 million, or 44.8%, compared to the prior year's first quarter.

Service charges increased due to a $105 thousand increase in service charges on deposit accounts and a $89 thousand increase in overdraft fees.

Net gain on sale of loans decreased primarily due to a decrease in volume of loans sold. During the three-months ended March 31, 2023, 63 loans were sold, totaling $9.2 million. During the three-months ended March 31, 2022, 208 loans were sold, totaling $38.2 million.

Lease revenue and residual income increased $2.0 million due to the acquisition of VFG.

Other income increased as result of a $1.5 million fee collected associated with the renewal of the company's contract with MasterCard.

For the first quarter of 2023, noninterest expense totaled $27.6 million, an increase of $7.4 million, or 36.4%, compared to the prior year's first quarter.

Total noninterest expense	$ 27,633	$ 20,258	$ 7,375	36.4 %

Compensation expense increased primarily due to the acquisition of Comunibanc Corp and VFG. The quarter-to-date average full time equivalent (FTE) employees were 532.4 at March 31, 2023, an increase of 88.9 FTEs over the same period in 2022.

The increase in occupancy and equipment expense is due to increases related to the acquisition of Comunibanc Corp and the opening of a new branch in Ohio. Additionally, Equipment expense increased $2.0 million due to increases in equipment depreciation related to the acquisition of VFG.

Contracted data processing fees decreased due to merger-related system deconversion fees paid in the first quarter of 2022.

Professional services increased due to acquisition advisory costs of $115 thousand, advisory fees for the company's MasterCard contract of $400 thousand and consulting fees related to CECL implementation of $29 thousand.

The increase in amortization of intangible assets is related to the merger with Comunibanc Corp.

Marketing expense increased due to a general increase in marketing and increase marketing efforts in newly acquired markets.

The increase in Software maintenance expense is due to both increases in software maintenance contracts as well as the implementation of the new digital banking platform.

The increase in other operating expense is primarily due to increases in promotional expenses of $274 thousand, bad check losses of $115 thousand, ATM/ACH losses of $217 thousand and a provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments of $201 thousand.

The efficiency ratio was 62.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to 65.2% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The change in the efficiency ratio is primarily due to an increase in noninterest expense offset by an increase in net interest income.

Civista's effective income tax rate for the first quarter 2023 was 16.4% compared to 15.5% in 2022.

Balance Sheet

Total assets increased $49.3 million, or 1.4%, from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in the loan portfolio of $33.4 million, or 1.3%. Additionally, the securities portfolio increased by $14.0 million, and cash increased $ 9.4 million.

Loan balances increased $33.4 million, or 1.3% in the first quarter. Commercial revolving line of credit balances have consistently been less than forty percent advanced. Commercial Real Estate continued to grow due to consistent demand in both the Non-owner Occupied and Owner-Occupied categories. Real Estate Construction grew slightly as new projects have started to draw with the spring construction season. Construction demand remains strong and construction availability continues to be near all-time highs. Residential Real Estate has grown slightly with new production in our CRA product, more home construction loans, and more ARM products in this higher rate environment.

Deposits

Total deposits increased $223.5 million, or 8.5%, from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023.

Total Deposits	$ 2,843,516	$ 2,619,984	$ 223,532	8.5 %

The increase in noninterest-bearing demand of $42.6 million was primarily due to a $82.0 million increase in balances related to the tax refund processing program, which is a seasonal increase. This seasonal increase was partially offset by a $37.7 million decrease in noninterest-bearing business accounts. Interest-bearing demand deposits increased due to a $15.8 million increase in public fund accounts. The decrease in savings and money market was primarily due to a $19.1 million decrease in personal money markets, a $14.5 million decrease in statement savings, and a $5.2 million decrease in business savings accounts. The increase in time certificates was primarily due to a $201.2 million increase in brokered time deposits.
