In this article:

BRISTOL, PA / ACCESSWIRE / January 17, 2024 / William Penn Bancorporation ("William Penn" or the "Company") (NASDAQ CM:WMPN), the parent company of William Penn Bank (the "Bank"), today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023. William Penn recorded net income of $11 thousand and $190 thousand, or $0.00 and $0.02 per basic and diluted share, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to net income of $1.1 million and $2.1 million, or $0.08 and $0.16 per basic and diluted share, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022. William Penn recorded a core net loss(1) of $168 thousand and $46 thousand, or $(0.02) and $(0.00) per basic and diluted share, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to core net income(1) of $788 thousand and $1.8 million, or $0.06 and $0.14 per basic and diluted share, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022.

In addition, William Penn announced that its Board of Directors has declared a cash dividend of $0.03 per share, payable on February 8, 2024, to common shareholders of record at the close of business on January 29, 2024.

"We continue to intensify our focus on capital return for our shareholders," stated Kenneth J. Stephon, William Penn's Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer. "Our second fiscal quarter once again underscored this commitment with substantial buyback activity, as we repurchased 1,191,831 shares at a total cost of $14.6 million, an average cost of $12.25 per share. Additionally, we announced on October 18, 2023 that our Board of Directors had authorized our seventh stock repurchase program, allowing for us to acquire up to 1,046,610 shares, or approximately 10.0% of our outstanding shares, which commenced upon the completion of the Company's sixth stock repurchase program."

Mr. Stephon continued, "As of December 31, 2023, we have repurchased a total of 5,996,320 shares through our seven repurchase programs at a total cost of $70.0 million, an average cost of $11.67 per share. This equates to approximately 40% of the total outstanding shares upon the completion of the second step on March 24, 2021. Although profitability remains under pressure, these share repurchases, combined with a decrease of $7.0 million in the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of equity during the quarter, drove our book value per share to $13.38 and our tangible book value per share(2) to $12.83 as of December 31, 2023.

"The Company continues to maintain a robust capital level, posting a stockholders' equity to assets ratio of 15.61% and a tangible common equity ratio(3) of 15.07% at December 31, 2023. We also continue to manage our expenses diligently. For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, non-interest expense totaled $5.1 million, a decrease of $589 thousand, or 10.4%, from the quarter ended December 31, 2022," Mr. Stephon added.

Highlights for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 are as follows:

  • As previously announced, on October 18, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a seventh stock repurchase program to acquire up to 1,046,610 shares, or approximately 10.0% of the Company's outstanding shares, that commenced upon the completion of the Company's sixth stock repurchase program. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we repurchased 1,191,831 shares at a total cost of $14.6 million, an average of $12.25 per share. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had repurchased a total of 5,996,320 shares under these repurchase programs at a total cost of $70.0 million, or $11.67 per share.

  • William Penn recorded net income of $11 thousand, or $0.00 per basic and diluted share, and a core net loss(1) of $168 thousand, or $(0.02) per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

  • The accumulated other comprehensive loss component of equity related to the unrealized loss on available for sale securities decreased $7.0 million, or 25.1%, during the three months ended December 31, 2023.

  • Asset quality metrics remain strong with non-performing assets to total assets decreasing to 0.38% as of December 31, 2023 from 0.49% as of June 30, 2023.

  • Book value per share measured $13.38 as of December 31, 2023 compared to $12.91 as of June 30, 2023. Tangible book value per share(2) measured $12.83 as of December 31, 2023 compared to $12.48 as of June 30, 2023. The increase in both book value per share and tangible book value per share was primarily due to a $2.4 million decrease in the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of equity related to the unrealized loss on available for sale securities and the repurchase of 2,815,849 shares at a total cost of $34.3 million, or $12.18 per share.

Statement of Financial Condition

Total assets decreased $21.6 million, or 2.5%, to $826.0 million at December 31, 2023, from $847.6 million at June 30, 2023, primarily due to a $10.3 million decrease in net loans, a $7.2 million decrease in investments, and a $3.3 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents. The Company used $34.3 million of cash during the six months ended December 31, 2023 to repurchase shares of stock under its previously announced stock repurchase programs.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $3.3 million, or 15.7%, to $17.5 million at December 31, 2023, from $20.8 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to the repurchase of 2,815,849 shares at a total cost of $34.3 million and an $8.6 million decrease in deposits, partially offset by a $20.0 million increase in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Pittsburgh, approximately $10.8 million of investment paydowns, and a $10.3 million decrease in net loans.

Total investments decreased $7.2 million, or 2.7%, to $259.2 million at December 31, 2023, from $266.4 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease in investments was primarily due to approximately $10.8 million of principal paydowns of the securities included in the available for sale and held to maturity portfolios, partially offset by a $3.2 million decrease in the gross unrealized loss on available for sale securities. The Company remains focused on maintaining a high-quality investment portfolio that provides a steady stream of cash flows.

Net loans decreased $10.3 million, or 2.2%, to $467.2 million at December 31, 2023, from $477.5 million at June 30, 2023. The interest rate environment has caused a slowdown in borrower demand and the Company maintains conservative lending practices and pricing discipline.

Deposits decreased $8.6 million, or 1.4%, to $626.7 million at December 31, 2023, from $635.3 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease in deposits was primarily due to a $15.7 million decrease in money market accounts, a $5.5 million decrease in savings accounts, and a $2.5 million decrease in non-interest bearing checking accounts, partially offset by a $17.0 million increase in interest bearing checking accounts. The interest rate environment has created significant pricing competition for deposits within our market.

Borrowings increased $20.0 million, or 58.8%, to $54.0 million at December 31, 2023, from $34.0 million at June 30, 2023. During the six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company borrowed from the FHLB of Pittsburgh to fund a portion of the $34.3 million of share repurchases.

Stockholders' equity decreased $31.8 million, or 19.8%, to $128.9 million at December 31, 2023, from $160.7 million at June 30, 2023. The decrease in stockholders' equity was primarily due to the repurchase of 2,815,849 shares at a total cost of $34.3 million, or $12.18 per share, during the six months ended December 31, 2023 under the Company's previously announced stock repurchase programs, the payment of two $0.03 per share quarterly cash dividends totaling $637 thousand, and a $226 thousand one-time cumulative effect decrease to retained earnings from the adoption of the Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") accounting standard. These decreases to stockholders' equity were partially offset by a $2.4 million decrease in the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of equity related to the unrealized loss on available for sale securities and $190 thousand of net income during the six months ended December 31, 2023. Book value per share measured $13.38 as of December 31, 2023 compared to $12.91 as of June 30, 2023, and tangible book value per share(2) measured $12.83 as of December 31, 2023 compared to $12.48 as of June 30, 2023.

Net Interest Income

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, net interest income was $4.2 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 30.2%, from the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest expense on deposits and borrowings, partially offset by an increase in interest income on loans. The net interest margin measured 2.28% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 3.10% for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in the net interest margin during the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of deposits and the rise in interest rates that caused an increase in the cost of borrowings and deposits that exceeded the increase in interest income on loans.

For the six months ended December 31, 2023, net interest income was $9.0 million, a decrease of $3.3 million, or 27.1%, from the six months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest expense on deposits and borrowings, partially offset by an increase in interest income on loans and investments. The net interest margin measured 2.40% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 3.14% for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in the net interest margin during the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of deposits and the rise in interest rates that caused an increase in the cost of borrowings and deposits that exceeded the increase in interest income on loans and investments.

Non-interest Income

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, non-interest income totaled $828 thousand, a decrease of $74 thousand, or 8.2%, from the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a $300 thousand net gain on the sale of premises and equipment associated with the sale of two properties recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2022, partially offset by a $94 thousand increase in the unrealized gain on equity securities and an $85 thousand gain on sale of securities recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2023.

For the six months ended December 31, 2023, non-interest income totaled $1.5 million, an increase of $294 thousand, or 24.8%, from the six months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to a $221 thousand unrealized gain on equity securities recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2023 compared to a $219 thousand unrealized loss on equity securities recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2022 and an $85 thousand gain on sale of securities recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2023. These increases to non-interest income were partially offset by a $300 thousand net gain on the sale of premises and equipment associated with the sale of two properties recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2022.

Non-interest Expense

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, non-interest expense totaled $5.1 million, a decrease of $589 thousand, or 10.4%, from the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in non-interest expense was primarily due to a $361 thousand decrease in salaries and employee benefits primarily due to a reduction in the number of full-time employees consistent with the Company's expense management initiatives and a $179 thousand decrease in occupancy and equipment expense consistent with the closure of the branch office located in Collingswood, New Jersey effective December 31, 2022.

For the six months ended December 31, 2023, non-interest expense totaled $10.3 million, a decrease of $927 thousand, or 8.3%, from the six months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in non-interest expense was primarily due to a $667 thousand decrease in salaries and employee benefits primarily due to a reduction in the number of full-time employees consistent with the Company's expense management initiatives and a $207 thousand decrease in occupancy and equipment expense consistent with the closure of the branch office located in Collingswood, New Jersey effective December 31, 2022.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a $68 thousand income tax benefit, reflecting an effective tax rate of (119.3)%, compared to a provision for income taxes of $217 thousand, reflecting an effective tax rate of 17.0%, for the same period in 2022. The income tax benefit recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to the $57 thousand loss before income taxes coupled with the $309 thousand of federal tax-exempt income recorded on bank-owned life insurance.

For the six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded an $83 thousand income tax benefit, reflecting an effective tax rate of (77.6)%, compared to a provision for income taxes of $150 thousand, reflecting an effective tax rate of 6.7%, for the same period in 2022. The income tax benefit recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to the $603 thousand of federal tax-exempt income recorded on bank-owned life insurance relative to the $107 thousand of income before income taxes. The Company recorded a $211 thousand income tax benefit related to a refund received associated with the carryback of net operating losses under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act during the six months ended December 31, 2022.

Asset Quality

Asset quality metrics remain strong with non-performing assets to total assets decreasing to 0.38% as of December 31, 2023 from 0.49% as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a $30 thousand provision for credit losses primarily due to an increase in delinquent home equity loans and home equity lines of credit, partially offset by a decrease in the outstanding balance of our total loan portfolio. During the six months ended December 31, 2022, we did not record a provision for loan losses due to improved asset quality metrics and continued low levels of net charge-offs and non-performing assets. Our allowance for credit losses totaled $3.6 million, or 0.76% of total loans, as of December 31, 2023, compared to $3.3 million, or 0.69% of total loans, as of June 30, 2023.

Capital and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2023, William Penn's stockholders' equity to assets ratio totaled 15.61% and tangible capital to tangible assets ratio(3) totaled 15.07%. The Bank's capital position remains strong relative to current regulatory requirements. The Bank has elected to follow the community bank leverage ratio framework and, as of December 31, 2023, the Bank had a community leverage ratio of 16.01% and is considered well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action framework.

The Bank continues to have substantial liquidity that has been retained in cash or invested in high quality government-backed securities. In addition, at December 31, 2023, we had the ability to borrow up to $284.1 million from the FHLB of Pittsburgh, $10.0 million with the Atlantic Community Bankers Bank ("ACBB") and $3.5 million with the Federal Reserve Bank.

WILLIAM PENN BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Unaudited Selected Consolidated Financial and Other Data
(Dollars in thousands)

The following tables present information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting annualized average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average daily balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Loan fees, including prepayment fees, are included in interest income on loans and are not material. Non-accrual loans are included in the average balances only. Any adjustments necessary to present yields on a tax equivalent basis are insignificant.

(4) As used in this press release, core return on average assets, core return on average equity, and core efficiency ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain pre-tax adjustments and the tax impact of such adjustments, and income tax benefit adjustments. For a reconciliation of these and other non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Reconciliation" at the end of the press release.

(5) As used in this press release, tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP financial measure excludes goodwill and other intangible assets. For a reconciliation of this and other non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Reconciliation" at the end of the press release.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation (unaudited)

In this press release, we present the non-GAAP financial measures included in the tables below, which are used to evaluate our performance and exclude the effects of certain transactions and one-time events that we believe are unrelated to our core business and not necessarily indicative of our current performance or financial position. Management believes excluding these items facilitates greater visibility into our core businesses and underlying trends that may, to some extent, be obscured by inclusion of such items. The following tables include a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their comparable GAAP measures.
