来源: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 31 1月 2024 16:30:00 America/New_York
Declares Cash Dividend of $0.21 per Share
Manhattan, KS, Jan. 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Landmark Bancorp, Inc. (“Landmark”; Nasdaq: LARK) reported diluted earnings per share of $0.48 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $0.53 per share in the third quarter of 2023 and $0.22 per share in the same quarter last year. Net earnings for the fourth quarter of 2023 amounted to $2.6 million, compared to $2.9 million in the prior quarter and $1.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, the return on average assets was 0.67%, the return on average equity was 9.39%, and the efficiency ratio was 71.9%.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, diluted earnings per share totaled $2.23 compared to $1.79 during 2022. Net earnings for 2023 totaled $12.2 million, compared to $9.9 million in 2022 or an increase of 23.9% which was mainly driven by increased net interest income and flat expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the return on average assets was 0.80% and the return on average equity was 10.70%.
In making this announcement, Michael E. Scheopner, President and Chief Executive Officer of Landmark, said, “While the banking industry has been challenged this year through the third quarter with rapidly rising interest rates, in the fourth quarter the Federal Reserve started to stabilize short-term rates and long-term interest rates declined. This enabled us to grow deposits, reduce investment securities and fund continued loan growth. We also reduced our reliance on borrowed funds as we sold some lower rate investment securities at a pre-tax loss of $1.2 million and reduced higher cost funding sources. Lower rates overall effectively increased our book value per share to $23.17 while also increasing equity to assets. Compared to the third quarter of 2023, total gross loans increased by $11.2 million, or 4.8% on an annualized basis mainly due to growth in residential mortgage and agriculture loans. Deposits also increased $6.8 million during the fourth quarter of 2023. Our loan to deposit ratio totaled 71.3% in the fourth quarter reflecting ample liquidity for future loan growth. Net interest income this quarter totaled $10.9 million and an increase of 2.4% from the prior quarter, as growth in interest income on loans outpaced increased interest costs on deposits. Our net interest margin increased to 3.11% during the fourth quarter of 2023 from 3.06% in the prior quarter. Non-interest income decreased $1.4 million compared to the third quarter of 2023 mostly due to the securities losses mentioned above while non-interest expense declined due to acquisition costs incurred last year in the fourth quarter that did not reoccur.”
Mr. Scheopner continued, “The credit quality of our loan portfolio remains solid. Landmark recorded net loan charge-offs of $362,000 in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to net loan charge-offs of $67,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022 and net loan recoveries of $521,000 in the third quarter of 2023. The ratio of net loan charge-offs to loans totaled 0.15% this quarter and remains low. Non-accrual loans totaled $2.4 million, or 0.25%, of gross loans at December 31, 2023 and declined $2.0 million from the prior quarter while the balance of loans past due 30 to 89 days remained low at $1.6 million, or 0.17%, of gross loans at December 31, 2023. The allowance for credit losses totaled $10.6 million at December 31, 2023, or 1.12% of period end gross loans, while our equity to assets ratio totaled 8.13%.”
Landmark’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.21 per share, to be paid February 28, 2024, to common stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 14, 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2023 the Company also distributed a 5% stock dividend to common shareholders representing the 23rd consecutive year the Board of Directors has declared a 5% stock dividend.

SUMMARY OF FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income in the fourth quarter of 2023 amounted to $10.9 million representing an increase of $260,000, or 2.4%, compared to the previous quarter. This increase in net interest income was due mainly to growth in interest income on loans which was partially offset by higher interest expense on deposits. The net interest margin increased 5 basis points to 3.11% during the fourth quarter. Compared to the previous quarter, interest income on loans increased $692,000, or 5.1%, to $14.2 million due to both higher rates and balances while the average tax-equivalent yield on the loan portfolio increased 11 basis points to 6.04%. Interest expense on deposits increased $495,000 in the fourth quarter 2023, compared to the prior quarter, mainly due to higher rates and average balances on interest-bearing deposits. The average rate on interest-bearing deposits increased in the fourth quarter to 2.13% compared to 1.93% in the prior quarter. Interest on borrowed funds decreased $63,000 mainly due to lower borrowed balances.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income totaled $2.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, a decrease of $558,000, or 19.8%, compared to the same period last year and a decrease of $1.4 million, or 38.3%, from the previous quarter. The decrease in non-interest income during the fourth quarter of 2023 was primarily due to losses on sales of investment securities, which increased from $750,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022 to $1.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. These losses in the current quarter were related to the sale of lower yielding investment securities. The third quarter of 2023 did not include any sales of investment securities. Gains on sales of one-to-four family residential real estate loans declined $162,000 from the same period last year and $236,000 from the prior quarter, due to lower fixed rate mortgage loan originations while fees and service charges increased 7.4% compared to the same period last year.
Non-Interest Expense
During the fourth quarter of 2023, non-interest expense totaled $10.6 million, a decrease of $3.4 million, or 24.3%, over the same period in 2023 and a decrease of $167,000, or 1.6%, compared to the prior quarter. The decrease in non-interest expense compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily due to acquisition costs of $3.0 million in the 4th quarter of 2022 that did not reoccur this year. Also contributing to the decline in other non-interest expense in the fourth quarter 2023 were lower losses associated with our captive insurance subsidiary and a decline in the valuation allowance on other real estate owned which declined from $354,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022 to $6,000 in the fourth quarter of 2023. Compensation and benefits declined this quarter compared to the prior quarter while data processing costs were relatively flat.
Income Tax Expense
Landmark recorded an income tax benefit of $111,000 in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to an income tax benefit of $466,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022 and income tax expense of $671,000 in the third quarter of 2023. The effective tax rate was (4.4%) in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to (62.5%) in the fourth quarter of 2022 and 18.9% in the third quarter of 2023. The fourth quarter of 2023 included the recognition of $517,000 of previously unrecognized tax benefits compared to the recognition of $465,000 of previously unrecognized tax benefits in the fourth quarter of 2022, which reduced the effective tax rate in the periods.
Liquidity Highlights
In addition to local retail, commercial and public fund deposits, the Company has access to multiple sources of brokered deposits that can be utilized for liquidity. Landmark also has diverse sources of liquidity available through both secured and unsecured borrowing lines of credit. At December 31, 2023, Landmark had collateral pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) that would allow for an additional $153.1 million of FHLB borrowings. Additionally, investment securities were pledged to the Federal Reserve discount window that provides borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve of $60.7 million. Landmark also had various other federal funds agreements, both secured and unsecured with correspondent banks totaling approximately $30.0 million in available credit at December 31, 2023.
As of December 31, 2023, Landmark had unpledged available-for-sale investment securities with a fair value of $75.0 million as well as approximately $44.0 million of pledged investment securities in excess of required levels. The average life of the Company’s investment portfolio is approximately 4.2 years and is projected to generate cash flow through maturities of $83.4 million over the next 12 months.
Balance Sheet Highlights
As of December 31, 2023, gross loans totaled $948.7 million, an increase of $11.2 million, or 4.8% annualized since September 30, 2023. During the quarter, loan growth was primarily comprised of one-to-four family residential real estate (growth of $13.0 million), agriculture (growth of $5.1 million) and municipal (growth of $1.3 million). The increase in one-to-four family residential real estate loans is primarily related to continued demand in adjustable-rate mortgage loans which are retained in our portfolio. Investment securities decreased $4.1 million, during the fourth quarter of 2023, while pre-tax unrealized net losses on these investment securities decreased from $42.8 million at September 30, 2023 to $21.9 million at December 31, 2023. During the fourth quarter of 2023, approximately $26.9 million of U.S. treasury securities were sold at a pre-tax loss of $1.2 million. The proceeds from the sale of the low yield investment securities were used to reduce higher cost FHLB borrowings.
Deposit balances increased $6.8 million, or 2.1% on an annualized basis, to $1.3 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase in deposits was mainly driven by increases in money market and checking (increase of $25.6 million) and certificate of deposit accounts (increase of $13.9 million) in the fourth quarter but partly offset by lower non-interest-bearing demand and savings accounts, which decreased in total by $32.7 million. The increase in money market and checking accounts was mainly driven by seasonal growth in public fund deposit account balances. Total borrowings, including FHLB advances and repurchase agreements decreased $17.8 million this quarter. At December 31, 2023, the loan to deposits ratio was 71.3% compared to 70.8% in the prior quarter and 64.7% in the same period last year.
Estimated uninsured deposits, excluding collateralized public fund deposits, totaled $197.2 million and $202.8 million as of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, respectively. This represents approximately 15% of total deposits at December 31, 2023 and compares favorably with other similar community banking organizations. Over 93% of Landmark’s total deposits were considered core deposits at December 31, 2023. These deposit balances are from retail, commercial and public fund customers located in the markets where the Company has bank branch locations. Brokered deposits are considered non-core and totaled $83.2 million at December 31, 2023 compared to $72.4 million at September 30, 2023 and are utilized as an additional source of liquidity.
Stockholders’ equity increased to $126.9 million (book value of $23.17 per share) as of December 31, 2023, from $109.6 million (book value of $19.99 per share) as of September 30, 2023, primarily due to a decrease in other comprehensive losses during the fourth quarter of 2023 related to lower market interest rates which decreased the unrealized losses on the Company’s investment securities portfolio. The ratio of equity to total assets increased to 8.13% on December 31, 2023, from 7.03% on September 30, 2023.
The allowance for credit losses totaled $10.6 million, or 1.12% of total gross loans on December 31, 2023, compared to $11.0 million, or 1.17% of total gross loans on September 30, 2023. Net loan charge-offs totaled $362,000 in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $67,000 during the same quarter last year and net loan recoveries of $521,000 during the third quarter of 2023. The ratio of annualized net loan charge-offs to total average loans was 0.15% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 0.03% in the fourth quarter of 2022, while the ratio of annualized net loan recoveries to total average loans was 0.23% in the third quarter of 2023. The net loan recoveries in the third quarter of 2023 included $626,000 related to a construction loan previously charged-off in 2011. A provision for credit losses of $50,000 was made in the fourth quarter of 2023 related to an increase in unfunded loan commitments. No provision for credit losses was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2022 or the third quarter of 2023.
Non-performing loans totaled $2.4 million, or 0.25% of gross loans and decreased $2.0 million from the prior quarter, while loans 30-89 days delinquent totaled $1.6 million, or 0.17% of gross loans, as of December 31, 2023. Real estate owned totaled $0.9 million at December 31, 2023.
