PEOPLES FINANCIAL SERVICES CORP. Reports Unaudited Fourth Quarter and Year to Date 2023 Earnings
SCRANTON, Pa., Jan. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Peoples Financial Services Corp. ("Peoples") (NASDAQ: PFIS), the bank holding company for Peoples Security Bank and Trust Company, today reported unaudited financial results at and for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023.
Peoples reported net income of $3.6 million, or $0.51 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2023, a 60.3% decrease when compared to $9.1 million, or $1.27 per diluted share for the comparable period of 2022. Quarterly net income included lower net interest income of $4.1 million due to higher deposit costs, a higher provision for credit losses of $3.8 million and higher operating expenses of $0.6 million mainly due to acquisition related expenses related to the previously announced proposed strategic combination as noted below, partially offset by higher noninterest income of $2.0 million. The year ago period included an after-tax loss of $1.6 million on the sale of available for sale securities.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, net income was $27.4 million, or $3.83 per diluted share, a 28.1% decrease when compared to $38.1 million, or $5.28 per diluted share for the comparable period of 2022. Net interest income for the current period decreased $9.0 million when compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 as higher interest income due to higher yields on earning assets was more than offset by increased funding costs. Higher operating expenses of $5.1 million, including $1.8 million of acquisition related expenses, and an increased provision for credit losses of $1.0 million were partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in noninterest income.
Core net income, a non-GAAP measure1, excludes gains or losses on the sale of investment portfolio securities and acquisition related expenses from the previously announced proposed combination further discussed below, of $826 thousand and $1.8 million incurred during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023, respectively. Core net income totaled $4.3 million or $0.61 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to $10.7 million, or $1.49 per share for the comparable period of 2022. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, core net income was $28.8 million and $4.03 per diluted share, compared to $39.7 million and $5.50 per diluted share in the year ago period.
STRATEGIC COMBINATION WITH FNCB BANCORP, INC.
On September 27, 2023, Peoples announced it had entered into a definitive agreement and plan of merger (the "merger agreement") to strategically combine with FNCB Bancorp, Inc., the parent company of FNCB Bank ("FNCB"). The proposed strategic combination is expected to close in the first half of 2024, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and shareholder approval from both Peoples and FNCB shareholders. Highlights of the proposed transaction include:
Strategic combination that creates a bank holding company with nearly $5.5 billion in assets.
#2 ranked deposit market share in the Scranton-Wilkes Barre metro statistical area and #5 ranked Pennsylvania-headquartered community bank under $20 billion in total assets.
The proposed strategic combination is projected to deliver estimated 59% earnings per share ("EPS") accretion to Peoples in 2025, inclusive of all merger synergies, and a 51% dividend increase to Peoples shareholders.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 was $27.4 million or $3.83 per diluted share.
Dividends paid during the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 totaled $1.64 per share representing a 3.8% increase from the comparable period in 2022.
The unrealized loss on the available for sale investments decreased $14.7 million from December 31, 2022 and $19.5 million from September 30, 2023 to $51.5 million at December 31, 2023.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, net loan growth was $119.8 million or 4.4% and consisted primarily of commercial real estate loans. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, net loans declined $21.1 million as the Company intentionally slowed new originations and has focused on building liquidity due to economic uncertainty.
Asset quality remained strong as nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets at December 31, 2023 was 0.13%, compared to 0.12% at December 31, 2022.
Total deposits grew $232.4 million to $3.3 billion during 2023; core deposits, defined as excluding brokered deposits, decreased $4.9 million in 2023. Core deposits decreased $75.4 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023 due in part to seasonal outflows of municipal deposits.

Additional contingent sources of available liquidity total $1.6 billion and include lines of credit at the Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLB), brokered deposit capacity and unencumbered securities that may be pledged as collateral. The Company's cash and cash equivalents balance and available liquidity represent 48.5% of total assets and 55.3% of total deposits.
At December 31, 2023, estimated total insured deposits were approximately $2.4 billion, or 73.1% of total deposits; as compared to approximately $1.9 billion, or 63.1% of total deposits at December 31, 2022. Included in the uninsured total at December 31, 2023 is $424.5 million of municipal deposits collateralized by letters of credit issued by the FHLB and pledged investment securities, and $0.8 million of affiliate company deposits. Total insured and collateralized deposits represent 86.0% of total deposits at December 31, 2023.
Tangible book value increased 11.8% to $39.35 at December 31, 2023 from $35.19 at December 31, 2022.
INCOME STATEMENT REVIEW
Calculated on a fully taxable equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure1, our net interest margin for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was 2.30%, a decrease of 14 basis points when compared to the 2.44% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 67 basis points when compared to 2.97% for the same three month period in 2022. The decrease in net interest margin from the prior three month period and year ago period was due to higher funding costs offsetting the increased yield and balance of earning assets.
The tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets increased 9 basis points to 4.49% during the three months ended December 31, 2023 from 4.40% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, and increased 65 basis points when compared to 3.84% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
Our cost of funds, which represents our average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities, increased 25 basis points to 2.86% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 when compared to 2.61% during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and increased 166 basis points compared to 1.20% in the prior year period. We continued to increase interest rates paid on deposits during the quarter to attract new deposits, retain current balances and maintain liquidity.
Our cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 27 basis points during the current three month period to 2.80% from 2.53% in the prior three month period ended September 30, 2023, and increased 172 basis points compared to 1.08% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
Our cost of total deposits for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased 25 basis points to 2.25% from 2.00% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, and increased 144 basis points compared to 0.81% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
Fourth Quarter 2023 Results – Comparison to Prior-Year Quarter
Tax-equivalent net interest income, a non-GAAP measure2, for the three months ended December 31, decreased $4.2 million or 16.7% to $20.7 million in 2023 from $24.9 million in 2022. The decrease in tax-equivalent net interest income was due to an $8.4 million increase in tax-equivalent interest income that was offset by a $12.6 million increase in interest expense.
The higher interest income was the result of an increase in yield and average balance of earning assets. Average earning assets were $262.1 million higher in the three month period ended December 31, 2023 when compared to the year ago period. The tax-equivalent yield on the loan portfolio was 4.93% and 4.35% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This increase was due to the higher rates on adjustable and floating rate loans, and new loan originations. Loans, net, averaged $2.9 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and $2.7 billion for the comparable period in 2022. For the three months ended December 31, the tax-equivalent yield on total investments increased to 1.78% in 2023 from 1.68% in 2022. Average investments totaled $537.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2023 and $640.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022.
The increased interest expense in the three months ended December 31, 2023 was due primarily to higher rates on consumer, business and municipal deposits driven by the higher interest rate environment. The Company's total cost of deposits increased during the three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ago period by 144 basis points to 2.25%, and the cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 172 basis points to 2.80% from 1.08% in the previous year three month period. Short-term borrowings averaged $24.1 million in the current period at an average cost of 5.43% compared to $49.4 million in short-term borrowings at an average cost of 4.20% in the prior period.
Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $358.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding period last year due primarily to an increase in non-maturity and brokered certificate of deposits. Average noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $107.7 million or 14.2% from the prior period, due in part to a shift to interest-bearing accounts, and represented 19.7% of total average deposits in the current period as compared to 24.8% in the year ago period.
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, $1.7 million was recorded to the provision for credit losses compared to a credit to the provision of $2.1 million in the year ago period. The current period provision was due to charge-offs during the quarter offset by a lower calculated allowance for credit losses. The lower calculated allowance was the result of a decline in model loss rates due to improved economic forecast and credit quality along with lower qualitative adjustments related to a decline in loan balances. The year ago period included a credit to the provision for credit losses of $2.1 million based on our previous allowance for credit losses methodology and then current conditions.
Noninterest income for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $3.2 million, a $2.0 million increase from the prior year's quarter. However, when excluding the prior year's period loss of $2.0 million on the sale of $45.5 million on available for sale U.S. Treasury securities, noninterest income was $3.2 million.
Noninterest expense increased $0.6 million or 3.8% to $17.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from $17.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Acquisition related expenses, including legal and consulting and advisory fees, totaled $0.8 million. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $0.2 million or 2.7% due primarily to lower salaries, partially offset by lower deferred loan origination costs and higher employee benefit costs. Occupancy and equipment expenses were lower by $0.6 million in the current period due to lower information technology (IT) expense partially offset by higher facilities costs. Other expenses increased $0.7 million due primarily to higher FDIC assessment and loan account processing fees, partially offset by lower Pennsylvania shares taxes.
The provision for income tax expense was $0.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, a decrease of $1.1 million due to lower taxable income.
2023 vs. 2022 Full Year Results
Our net interest margin, a non-GAAP measure1, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 was 2.54%, a decrease of 48 basis points over the prior year's period of 3.02%. Tax-equivalent net interest income, a non-GAAP measure3, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 decreased $9.0 million, or 9.2%, to $88.7 million in 2023 from $97.7 million in 2022. The decrease in net interest income was the result of higher loan interest income due to increased volume and rates on new loans and those that are repricing, offset by the higher cost of deposit funding. Average investments decreased $89.3 million compared to December 31, 2022, as the Company engaged in investment sales during the first three months of 2023 to, in part, fund loan growth and repay short-term borrowings. The yield on earning assets was 4.34% for the twelve months of 2023 compared to 3.50% for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2022. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2023 increased 174 basis points to 2.42% from 0.68% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 as the cost of all deposit products and short-term borrowing costs increased. Furthermore, the Company, as part of its strategy to improve on-balance sheet liquidity, added $259.0 million of brokered certificate of deposits at an average cost of 5.16% during 2023.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, a $566 thousand provision for credit losses was recorded compared to a credit of $449 thousand in the prior year period. The year to date provision was due to net charge-offs during the year offset by a lower calculated allowance for credit losses. The lower calculated allowance was the result of a slight decline in model loss rates due primarily to credit quality and portfolio runoff along with lower qualitative adjustments related to a decline in loan balances.
Noninterest income was $14.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 and $11.8 million for the comparable period ended December 31, 2022. During the period, service charges, fees and commissions increased $0.7 million, due in part to a $0.4 million increase in consumer and commercial deposit service charges and increased dividends on FHLB stock. Merchant services income decreased $0.3 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the prior year on lower transaction volume incentives. Interest rate swap revenue decreased $0.2 million on lower origination volume and market value adjustments.
Noninterest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, was $67.8 million, an increase of $5.1 million from $62.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was due primarily to $1.7 million in higher salaries and benefits expense due to lower deferred loan origination costs, which are recorded as a contra-salary expense, of $0.9 million due to lower loan origination volume compared to the year ago period and higher benefits expense of $1.0 million, including increases in health insurance costs and profit-sharing expenses. Occupancy and equipment expenses were higher by $0.7 million in the current period due to higher technology costs related to increased account and transaction volumes and increased facility expenses. The year ago period included $0.5 million of gains from the sale of other real estate owned, which is included in noninterest expense. Acquisition related expenses totaled $1.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 with no comparable amount during the same period of 2022. Other expenses including professional fees, loan account processing fees, Pennsylvania shares tax and FDIC assessments accounted for an increase of $0.8 million.
The provision for income taxes for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 decreased $2.2 million and the effective tax rate was 15.8% as compared to 16.0% in the prior period.
BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
At December 31, 2023, total assets, loans and deposits were $3.7 billion, $2.8 billion and $3.3 billion, respectively. During the twelve month period, investment sales, deposit growth and FHLB term borrowings were utilized to fund loan growth and repay short-term borrowings.
Loan growth for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 was $119.8 million or 4.4%. Total loans declined $21.1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023, following slowed growth during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, totaling $27.7 million and $25.2 million, respectively, when compared to loan growth of $88.0 million during the first three months of 2023. The Company has intentionally slowed loan growth and has focused on building liquidity due to economic uncertainty. Commercial real estate loans made up the majority of the growth with residential real estate loans also increasing.
Total investments were $483.9 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $569.0 million at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2023, the available for sale securities totaled $398.9 million and the held to maturity securities totaled $84.9 million. The unrealized loss on the available for sale securities decreased $14.7 million from December 31, 2022 to $51.5 million at December 31, 2023. The unrealized losses on the held to maturity portfolio totaled $13.2 million and $14.6 million at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. During the three month period ended March 31, 2023, $65.6 million in U.S. Treasury, tax-exempt municipals and mortgage-backed securities were sold at a net gain of $81 thousand. The proceeds were used to pay-down higher cost short-term borrowings.
Total deposits increased $232.4 million during the twelve months ending December 31, 2023. Noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $128.1 million and interest-bearing deposits increased $360.5 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The increase in deposits was due to a $237.4 million net increase in brokered deposits, $129.3 million in commercial deposits and a $9.0 million increase in municipal deposits, partially offset by $143.3 million in reduced retail deposits. The Company added $259.0 million of longer-term callable brokered CDs during the first six months of 2023 to improve its on-balance sheet liquidity position and mitigate risk of higher rates. The Company has the option to call the CDs. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, deposits declined $86.0 million due in part to seasonal outflows of municipal deposits and commercial and retail depositors drawing down their noninterest-bearing balances.
The deposit base consisted of 41.4% retail accounts, 33.4% commercial accounts, 17.2% municipal relationships and 8.0% brokered deposits at December 31, 2023. At December 31, 2023, total estimated uninsured deposits, were $883.5 million, or approximately 26.9% of total deposits as compared to $1.1 billion, or 36.9% of total deposits at December 31, 2022. Included in the uninsured total at December 31, 2023 is $424.5 million of municipal deposits collateralized by letters of credit issued by the FHLB and pledged investment securities, and $0.8 million of affiliate company deposits. As an additional resource to our uninsured depositors, we offer all depositors access to IntraFi's CDARS and ICS programs which allows deposit customers to obtain full FDIC deposit insurance while maintaining their relationship with our Bank.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, the Company utilized a portion of its available line at the FHLB and increased its long-term debt $25.0 million due to favorable pricing on the borrowings versus alternative funding sources. There were no new long-term borrowings in the most recent three month period ended December 31, 2023.
In addition to deposit gathering and our current long term borrowings, we have additional sources of liquidity available such as cash and cash equivalents, overnight borrowings from the FHLB, the Federal Reserve's Discount Window and Borrower-in-Custody program, correspondent bank lines of credit, brokered deposit capacity and unencumbered securities. At December 31, 2023, the Company had $187.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $149.5 million from December 31, 2022. Also, we have $191.0 million in collateral availability with the Federal Reserve's Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP) and an additional $177.9 million of borrowing capacity based on the par value of unencumbered securities available as collateral under this line which may be used if needed. At December 31, 2023, we had $1.6 billion in available additional liquidity representing 43.4% of total assets, 49.6% of total deposits and 184.0% of uninsured deposits. For additional information on our deposit portfolio and additional sources of liquidity, see the tables on page 17.
The Company maintained its well capitalized position at December 31, 2023. Stockholders' equity equaled $340.4 million or $48.35 per share at December 31, 2023, and $315.4 million or $44.06 per share at December 31, 2022. The increase in stockholders' equity from December 31, 2022 is primarily attributable to net income and a decrease to accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCI") resulting from a decrease in the unrealized loss on available for sale securities. The net after tax unrealized loss on available for sale securities included in AOCI at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $40.3 million and $52.0 million, respectively.
Tangible stockholders' equity, a non-GAAP measure4, increased to $39.35 per share at December 31, 2023, from $35.19 per share at December 31, 2022. Dividends declared for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 amounted to $1.64 per share, a 3.8% increase from the 2022 period, representing a dividend payout ratio of 42.8% of net income. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, 131,686 shares were purchased and retired under the Company's common stock repurchase plan at an average price per share of $44.29.
ASSET QUALITY REVIEW
Asset quality metrics remained strong. Nonperforming assets were $4.9 million or 0.17% of loans, net and foreclosed assets at December 31, 2023, compared to $4.1 million or 0.15% of loans, net and foreclosed assets at December 31, 2022. As a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets totaled 0.13% at December 31, 2023 compared to 0.12% at December 31, 2022. Nonaccrual loans increased due primarily to placing a collateral dependent commercial real estate loan on nonaccrual as the primary source of repayment is in doubt and there is limited secondary sources due to bankruptcy. At December 31, 2023, the Company had no foreclosed properties.
Effective January 1, 2023, the Company transitioned to ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), commonly referred to as Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL). As a result of the transition to CECL, the allowance for credit losses was reduced $3.3 million to $24.2 million effective January 1, 2023 and the reserve for unfunded commitments was increased $270 thousand to $450 thousand. The cumulative adjustment, net of tax, was recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings effective January 1, 2023.
During the twelve month period ended December 31, 2023, a $0.6 million provision for credit losses and net charge-offs of $2.9 million were recorded. The allowance for credit losses equaled $21.9 million or 0.77% of loans, net at December 31, 2023 compared to $27.5 million or 1.01% of loans, net, at December 31, 2022. Loans charged-off, net of recoveries, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 were $2.9 million or 0.10% of average loans, compared to $462 thousand or 0.02% of average loans for the comparable period last year. Net charge-offs during the three months ended December 31, 2023 were $2.8 million due primarily to the partial charge-off of a commercial real estate loan as the market value declined significantly as a result of the impending vacancy of the property by its single "anchor" tenant.

Safe Harbor Forward-Looking Statements:
We make statements in this press release, and we may from time to time make other statements regarding our outlook or expectations for future financial or operating results and/or other matters regarding or affecting Peoples Financial Services Corp. and Peoples Security Bank and Trust Company (collectively, "Peoples") that are considered "forward-looking statements" as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of such words as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "should," "planned," "estimated," "intend" and "potential." For these statements, Peoples claims the protection of the statutory safe harbors for forward-looking statements.
Peoples cautions you that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those currently anticipated in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to: prevailing economic and political conditions, particularly in our market area; the impact on financial markets from geopolitical conflicts such as the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the developing conflict in Israel; credit risk associated with our lending activities; changes in interest rates, loan demand, deposit flows, real estate values and competition; changes in customer behaviors, including consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; changes in accounting principles, policies, and guidelines including our adoption of Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) methodology, and any potential volatility in the Company's operating results due to application of the CECL methodology; changes in any applicable law, rule, regulation or practice with respect to tax or legal issues; our ability to identify and address cyber-security risks and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technological factors affecting Peoples' operations, pricing, products and services; adverse developments in the financial industry generally, such as recent bank failures, responsive measures to mitigate and manage such developments, related supervisory and regulatory actions and costs, and related impacts on customer and client behavior and other factors that may be described in Peoples' Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.
In addition to these risks, acquisitions and business combinations, including the Company's proposed strategic combination with FNCB, present additional risks. Acquisitions and business combinations and, specifically, the pending strategic combination involving the merger of FNCB with and into Peoples (the "Merger") may be substantially more expensive to complete than originally anticipated, and the anticipated benefits may be significantly harder-or take longer-to achieve than expected. As regulated financial institutions, our pursuit of attractive acquisition and business combination opportunities could be negatively impacted by regulatory delays or other regulatory issues. Regulatory and/or legal issues related to the pre-acquisition operations of an acquired or combined business may cause reputational harm to Peoples following the acquisition or combination, and integration of the acquired or combined business with ours may result in additional future costs arising as a result of those issues. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the definitive merger agreement between Peoples and FNCB; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Peoples or FNCB; the possibility that the proposed strategic combination will not close when expected or at all because required regulatory, shareholder or other approvals are not received or other conditions to the closing are not satisfied on a timely basis or at all, or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated (and the risk that required regulatory approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction).
The forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this release, and, except as may be required by applicable law or regulation, Peoples assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements.
Additional Information regarding the Merger and Where to Find It
In connection with the proposed Merger, Peoples filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC.
