LCNB successfully completed the Eagle Financial Bancorp, Inc. acquisition on April 12, 2024

Management expects earnings growth will reaccelerate in the fourth quarter of 2024

LCNB Corp. ("LCNB") (NASDAQ:LCNB) today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Commenting on the financial results, LCNB President and Chief Executive Officer, Eric Meilstrup said, "Our first quarter performance reflects our near-term focus on integrating the November 2023 Cincinnati Federal acquisition and completing the merger with Eagle Financial Bancorp, Inc. ("EFBI" or "Eagle"), which I am pleased to report closed on April 12, 2024. I am excited by the opportunities underway to leverage the benefits of these two acquisitions and serve compelling communities within the greater Cincinnati region. While we expect one-time merger-related expenses will continue throughout the first half of 2024, we believe we are well positioned for earnings growth to reaccelerate in the fourth quarter of 2024."

"We are simultaneously pursuing organic growth opportunities while providing our communities with best-in-class and local financial services. Total assets managed by LCNB Wealth Management increased 19.4% year-over-year and are up 8.6% over the past three months. The continued growth of LCNB Wealth Management demonstrates the value our financial, trust, and investment products provide to our local communities," Mr. Meilstrup continued.

"In addition to the growth strategies underway, we are also focused on maintaining excellent asset quality and pursuing initiatives that strengthen our balance sheet. As we successfully execute these actions over the coming quarters, we believe we will enhance our earnings power, strengthen our competitive advantage, and position LCNB National Bank for long-term success. I am proud of the direction LCNB is headed, and I look forward to updating shareholders on the progress we are making," concluded Mr. Meilstrup.

Income Statement

Net income for the 2024 first quarter was $1.9 million, compared to net income of $4.2 million for the same period last year. Earnings per basic and diluted share for the 2024 first quarter were $0.15, compared to $0.37 for the same period last year.

Adjusted net income accounts for the impact of one-time merger-related expenses, net of tax, associated with the Cincinnati Federal and EFBI acquisitions. Adjusted net income for the 2024 first quarter was $2.6 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to $4.2 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $13.9 million, compared to $13.9 million for the comparable period in 2023. An increase in interest income from loans due to a higher volume of average loans outstanding and the average rates earned on these loans was offset by increased interest expense from higher IRA and time certificate balances, increased long-term debt, and interest rate-related variances.

For the 2024 first quarter, LCNB's tax equivalent net interest margin was 2.73%, compared to 3.28% for the same period last year. The decrease in the net interest margin reflects the current interest rate environment. As depositors moved funds from non-interest bearing deposits into higher rate products, the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased 142 basis points. During the same period, the average rate earned from interest-earning assets increased a more gradual 66 basis points.

Non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $3.9 million, compared to $3.6 million for the same period last year. The increase in non-interest income for the three-month period was primarily due to higher fiduciary income and higher gains on sales of loans due to a higher volume of loans sold. Management considers various factors when determining the volume of loans to sell, including liquidity needs and sources and pricing available in the secondary market. LCNB's inventory of new loans is also a factor. The first quarter 2024 was the first quarter that LCNB operated in the expanded market it obtained through the merger with Cincinnati Federal. Partially offsetting the increases in non-interest income during the quarter was a $214,000 pretax loss on the sale of approximately $9.8 million of debt securities.

Non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $2.9 million higher than the comparable period in 2023, primarily due to higher personnel and operating expenses primarily associated with the integration of Cincinnati Federal and $775,000 of one-time expenses associated with the Cincinnati Federal and EFBI acquisitions.

Capital Allocation

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, LCNB did not repurchase any of its outstanding shares. At March 31, 2024, LCNB had 315,047 shares remaining under its February 2023 share repurchase program.

For the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, LCNB paid $0.22 per share in dividends, a 4.8% increase from $0.21 per share in the first quarter of last year.

Balance Sheet

Total assets at March 31, 2024 increased 18.6% to $2.28 billion from $1.92 billion at March 31, 2023. Net loans at March 31, 2024 increased 18.7% to $1.65 billion, compared to $1.39 billion at March 31, 2023. The year-over-year improvement resulted primarily from the contribution of continued organic loan growth and the completion of the Cincinnati Federal acquisition. Not including the Cincinnati Federal acquisition, total net loans increased 2.0% organically, or by $27.8 million from the same period a year ago.

Loans held for sale totaled $75.6 million at March 31, 2024 and are primarily composed of loans scheduled to be sold to an investor during the second quarter of 2024. LCNB anticipates that proceeds from the sale will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include supporting loan growth, paying down short-term borrowings and long-term debt, and adding to liquidity balances.

Total deposits at March 31, 2024 increased 15.9% to $1.86 billion, compared to $1.60 billion at March 31, 2023. Not including the Cincinnati Federal acquisition, total deposits increased 4.5% organically, or by $71.4 million since March 31, 2023.

Assets Under Management

Total assets managed at March 31, 2024 were a record $3.98 billion, compared to $3.16 billion at March 31, 2023. The year-over-year increase in total assets managed was primarily due to the Cincinnati Federal acquisition and organic growth in LCNB Corp. total assets, trust and investments, and brokerage accounts. Organically, trust and investments and brokerage accounts increased due to a higher number of new LCNB Wealth Management customer accounts and an increase in the fair value of managed assets. Mortgage loans serviced increased primarily due to the Cincinnati Federal acquisition.

Asset Quality

For the 2024 first quarter, LCNB recorded a provision for credit losses of $125,000, compared to a recovery of credit losses of $57,000 for the 2023 first quarter.

Net charge-offs for the 2024 first quarter were $45,000, or 0.01% of average loans, compared to net charge-offs of $16,000, or 0.00% of average loans, annualized, for the same period last year.

Total nonperforming loans, which include non-accrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, were $3.2 million, or 0.19% of total loans at March 31, 2024, compared to $701,000 or 0.05% of total loans at March 31, 2023. The year-over-year increase in nonaccrual loans was primarily due to one commercial real estate relationship, representing a balance of $2.6 million. The nonperforming assets to total assets ratio was 0.14% at March 31, 2024, compared to 0.04% at March 31, 2023.

Merger Agreement with Eagle Financial Bancorp, Inc.

On April 12, 2024, LCNB completed the acquisition of EFBI and the merger of EAGLE.bank with and into LCNB National Bank. EAGLE.bank operated three full-service banking offices in Cincinnati, Ohio.

With the addition of EFBI, LCNB now operates 36 full-service banking offices in Ohio and one branch office in Northern Kentucky. Assuming the transaction had been completed as of March 31, 2024, LCNB would have had total deposits of $1.99 billion and total loans of $1.79 billion at March 31, 2024.
