HOME FEDERAL BANCORP, INC. OF LOUISIANA REPORTS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022

Shreveport, Louisiana, Oct. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Home Federal Bancorp, Inc. of Louisiana (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: HFBL), the holding company of Home Federal Bank, reported net income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 of $1.7 million compared to net income of $1.4 million reported for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.55 and $0.52, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.42 and $0.38, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

The Company reported the following key achievements during the three months ended September 30, 2022:

  • Total loans receivable, net of allowance for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $18.5 million, or 4.8%, to $406.4 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $387.9 million at June 30, 2022.
  • The Company’s average interest rate spread was 3.74% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2.98% for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
  • The Company’s net interest margin was 3.90% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 3.16% for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
  • Basic earnings per share increased $0.13, or 31.0%, from $0.42 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $0.55 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
  • Diluted earnings per share increased $0.14 or 36.8%, from $0.38 for the three months ended September 30,2021 compared to $0.52 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase in net income for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the prior year quarter resulted primarily from an increase of $1.1 million, or 25.6%, in net interest income, and a decrease of $343,000, or 97.4%, in provision for income taxes, partially offset by a decrease of $470,000, or 46.3%, in non-interest income, an increase of $418,000, or 100.0%, in provision for loan losses, and an increase of $218,000, or 6.2%, in non-interest expense. The increase in net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to a $1.0 million, or 21.1%, increase in total interest income, and a $74,000, or 13.5%, decrease in total interest expense. The increase in total interest income was primarily due to an increase of 68 basis points in the average rate on total interest-earning assets. The Company’s average interest rate spread was 3.74% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2.98% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.90% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 3.16% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in provision for income taxes was due to an adjustment in taxes due for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 related to stock option exercises.

The following table sets forth the Company’s average balances and average yields earned and rates paid on its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the periods indicated.

The $470,000 decrease in non-interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the prior year quarterly period, was primarily due to a decrease of $534,000 in gain on sale of loans, a $2,000 decrease in income from bank owned life insurance, and a $1,000 decrease in other income, partially offset by a $67,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts. The Company sells most of its long-term fixed rate residential mortgage loan originations primarily in order to manage interest rate risk. The decrease in gain on sale of loans was due to a reduction in loans originated for sale reflecting a decrease in mortgage refinancing activity.

The $218,000 increase in non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021, is primarily attributable to increases of $93,000 in other non-operating expense, $72,000 in compensation and benefits expense, $72,000 in occupancy and equipment expense, $26,000 in legal fees, $9,000 in deposit insurance expense, and $3,000 in audit and examination fees. The increases were partially offset by decreases of $26,000 in data processing expense, $20,000 in loan and collection expense, and $11,000 in franchise and bank shares tax expense. The decrease in other non-operating expense was primarily due to communication expense, correspondent bank fees, and fraud expense related to deposit checking accounts.

At September 30, 2022, the Company reported total assets of $581.6 million, a decrease of $8.9 million, or 1.5%, compared to total assets of $590.5 million at June 30, 2022. The decrease in assets was comprised primarily of decreases in cash and cash equivalents of $26.5 million, or 41.4%, from $64.1 million at June 30, 2022 to $37.5 million at September 30, 2022, loans held for sale of $2.0 million, or 50.0%, from $4.0 million at June 30, 2022 to $2.0 million at September 30, 2022, premises and equipment of $112,000, or 0.7%, from $16.2 million at June 30, 2022 to $16.1 million at September 30, 2022, and other assets of $103,000, or 7.4%, from $1.4 million at June 30, 2022 to $1.3 million at September 30, 2022. These decreases were partially offset by increases in loans receivable, net of $18.5 million, or 4.8%, from $387.9 million at June 30, 2022 to $406.4 million at September 30, 2022, investment securities of $789,000, or 0.7%, from $108.0 million at June 30, 2022 to $108.8 million at September 30, 2022, deferred tax asset of $323,000, or 28.3%, from $1.1 million at June 30, 2022 to $1.5 million at September 30, 2022, accrued interest receivable of $126,000, or 11.2%, from $1.1 million at June 30, 2022 to $1.3 million at September 30, 2022, and real estate owned of $93,000, or 100.0%, from none at June 30, 2022 to $93,000 at September 30, 2022, and bank owned life insurance of $26,000, or 0.4%, from $6.60 million at June 30, 2022 to $6.62 million at September 30, 2022. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to the funding of additional loan growth and purchases of securities with excess liquidity. The increase in loans receivable, net, was primarily due to an increase of $13.9 million in commercial real estate loans. The increase in investment securities was primarily due to security purchases of $5.4 million offset by principal repayments on mortgage backed securities of $3.4 million and a $1.1 million increase in market value losses on available-for-sale securities. The decrease in loans held-for-sale primarily reflected a reduction in loans originated for sale during the three months ended September 30, 2022 due mainly to a decrease in mortgage refinance activity likely attributable to the increase in interest rates.

Total liabilities decreased $3.7 million, or 0.7%, from $538.1 million at June 30, 2022 to $534.5 million at September 30, 2022 primarily due to decreases in total deposits of $8.2 million, or 1.5%, to $523.8 million at September 30, 2022 compared to $532.0 million at June 30, 2022, and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of $9,000, or 1.1%, to $823,000 at September 30, 2022 compared to $832,000 at June 30, 2022, partially offset by increases in other borrowings of $4.0 million, or 170.2%, to $6.4 million at September 30, 2022 compared to $2.4 million at June 30, 2022, other accrued expenses and liabilities of $431,000, or 16.5%, to $3.0 million at September 30, 2022 compared to $2.6 million at June 30, 2022, and advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance of $136,000, or 38.4%, to $490,000 at September 30, 2022 compared to $354,000 at June 30, 2022. The decrease in deposits was primarily due to a $13.1 million, or 9.8%, decrease in savings deposits from $133.0 million at June 30, 2022 to $119.9 million at September 30, 2022, a $6.4 million, or 4.0%, decrease in non-interest bearing deposits from $161.1 million at June 30, 2022 to $154.7 million at September 30, 2022, a $2.2 million, or 2.2%, decrease in money market deposits from $98.6 million at June 30, 2022 to $96.5 million at September 30, 2022, partially offset by an increase of $7.8 million, or 9.8%, in certificates of deposit from $80.3 million at June 30, 2022 to $88.1 million at September 30, 2022, and an increase of $5.6 million, or 9.4% in NOW accounts from $59.0 million at June 30, 2022 compared to $64.5 million at September 30, 2022. The Company had $3.0 million in brokered deposits at September 30, 2022 compared to $6.0 million at June 30, 2022. The decrease in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank was primarily due to principal paydowns on amortizing advances. The entire balance in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank are now short-term due to our only advance with a balloon maturity in January 2023.

At September 30, 2022, the Company had $2.2 million of non-performing assets (defined as non-accruing loans, accruing loans 90 days or more past due, and other real estate owned) compared to $2.2 million on non-performing assets at June 30, 2022, consisting of six single-family residential loans and one single family residence in other real estate owned at September 30, 2022, compared to six single-family residential loans and one line of credit loan at June 30, 2022. At both September 30, 2022 and June 30, 2022, the Company had five single family residential loans and two commercial real estate loans classified as substandard. There were no loans classified as doubtful at September 30, 2022 or June 30, 2022.

Shareholders’ equity decreased $5.2 million, or 10.0%, to $47.1 million at September 30, 2022 from $52.3 million at June 30, 2022. The primary reasons for the changes in shareholders’ equity from June 30, 2022 were the repurchase of Company stock of $5.9 million, a decrease in the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income of $877,000, and dividends paid totaling $407,000, partially offset by net income of $1.7 million, proceeds from the issuance of common stock from the exercise of stock options of $147,000, and the vesting of restricted stock awards, stock options, and the release of employee stock ownership plan shares totaling $137,000.

The Company repurchased 289,900 shares of its common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2022 at an average price per share of $20.00. On February 16, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved an eleventh stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to 170,000 shares. The eleventh stock repurchase program was completed on August 2, 2022.
