MOUNT AIRY, N.C., Oct. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Surrey Bancorp (the “Company”), (Pink Sheets: SRYB), the holding company for Surrey Bank & Trust (the “Bank”), today reported earnings for the third quarter of 2022.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, net income totaled $2,118,976 or $0.51 per fully diluted share, compared to $842,609 or $0.20 per fully diluted common share earned during the third quarter of 2021.

The increase in earnings results from an increase in the net interest income and the recapture of the provision for loan losses.

Net interest income increased from $2,872,567 in the third quarter of 2021 to $4,396,963 in the third quarter of 2022. Interest income increased from $2,978,081 in the third quarter of 2021 to $4,510,525 in the third quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily due to the general increase in interest rates. As a result, the overall yield on interest earning assets increased from 2.72 percent to 3.84 percent between the third quarter of 2021 and the third quarter of 2022. The cost of funds increased from 0.10 percent in the third quarter of 2021 to 0.11 percent in 2022. Interest expense increased from $105,514 in the third quarter of 2021 to $113,562 in the third quarter of 2022.

The provision for loan losses decreased from $208,145 in the third quarter of 2021 to a provision recapture of $37,348 in 2022, a $245,493 decrease. This decrease is due to a decrease in loan balances, net of government guarantees, from the third quarter of 2021 compared to the end of third quarter of 2022 and a decrease in the estimated economic impact of the COVID 19 pandemic. Loan loss reserves were $4,350,722 or 1.75 percent of total loans as of September 30, 2022. Non-performing assets were 0.08 percent of total assets at September 30, 2022, compared to 0.60 percent on that date in 2021. At September 30, 2022, the allowance for loan loss reserves equals 436 percent of impaired and non-performing assets, net of government guarantees.

Noninterest income increased from $541,222 in the third quarter of 2021 to $574,902 in 2022, a 6.2 percent increase. The increase is due to increase in service charges on deposit accounts. Noninterest expenses increased 6.9 percent from $2,122,151 in the third quarter of 2021, to $2,267,537 in 2022. This increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits.

Total assets were $499,788,812 as of September 30, 2022, an increase of 5.5 percent from $473,754,080 reported as of September 30, 2021. Total deposits were $435,882,407 at quarter-end 2022, a 4.9 percent increase from the $415,241,266 reported at the end of the third quarter of 2021. Net loans decreased to $244,508,782, or 1.6 percent, compared to $248,542,066, at September 30, 2021.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $5,164,161 or $1.24 per diluted share, compared to $3,923,768 or $0.94 per diluted share, for the same period in 2021. The increase is primarily due an increase in net interest income and the recapture of loan loss reserves. Net interest income increased from $9,535,410 in 2022 2021 to $11,053,950 in 2022. The provision for loan losses decreased from $325,931 in 2021 to a provision recapture of $1,114,885 in 2022, a $1,440,816 decrease. The recapture of loan loss reserves results from a combination of a decrease in loans, a reduction in the estimated economic effects of COVID 19, and loan charge off recoveries during 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report refers to the overhead efficiency ratio, which is computed by dividing non-interest expense by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income. This is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe provides investors with important information regarding our operational efficiency. Comparison of our efficiency ratio with those of other companies may not be possible, because other companies may calculate the efficiency ratio differently. Such information is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and should not be construed as such. Management believes such financial information is meaningful to the reader in understanding operating performance but cautions that such information not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP. Surrey Bancorp, in referring to its net income, is referring to income under GAAP.

These statements involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood, and degree of occurrence. As such, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecast in such forward-looking statements.
