    President’s Comments

    Andrew J. Ryback, director, president, and chief executive officer of Plumas Bancorp and Plumas Bank, stated, “During the second quarter, deposits stabilized. Our ability to maintain a low overall cost of funds remains a significant factor in driving profitability.

    Loans continued to grow with strong SBA production. Currently our production is primarily fixed rate SBA 7(a) loans; however, when the market for variable rate product returns to more normal levels, we will return to making variable rate SBA 7(a) loans, the guaranteed portion of which we sell in the secondary market, enhancing non-interest income. We continue to refine CRE stress testing and closely monitor classified assets. Several significant reductions in nonaccrual loans have been achieved and concentrations remain within guidelines.

    Increased yield on the restructured securities portfolio has more than offset the increase in rent expense resulting from the sale leaseback transaction completed in the first quarter. Additionally, unrealized losses in the securities portfolio continue to decline.

    We are pleased to report that Plumas Bancorp has been included again in the Russell 2000 which reconstituted at the close of the second quarter. Inclusion will likely enhance stock liquidity via trading by index funds and benchmarked investment strategies.”

    “Additionally,” continued Ryback, “Plumas Bank recently received several awards including:

    • Raymond James Bankers Cup
    • Independent Community Bankers of America Top-Performing Bank
    • Keefe, Bruyette & Woods Bank Honor Roll
    • American Banker Top-Performing Community Banks
    • D.A. Davidson Bison Select
    • Findley Reports Super Premier Performing Bank
    • CB-Resource Top Ten

    Each of these awards assesses performance in a diversity of metrics compared with peer institutions. Our efforts to proactively manage earnings, expenses, and margins in a turbulent environment have allowed us to continue to achieve strong results.”

    Sales/Leaseback and Investment Restructuring

    On January 19, 2024, Plumas Bank entered into two agreements for the purchase and sale of real property (the “Sale Agreements”). One Sale Agreement provided for the sale to MountainSeed of nine properties owned and operated by Plumas Bank as branches (the “Branches”) for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $25.7 million. The branch portion of the sale was completed on February 14, 2024 resulting in a net gain on sale of $19.9 million, recording of right-of-use assets totaling $22.3 million and recording a lease liability of $22.3 million. The second Sale Agreement provides for the sale to MountainSeed of up to three properties operated as non-branch administrative offices (the “Non-Branch Offices”) for an aggregate cash purchase price of $7.9 million, assuming all of the Non-Branch Offices are sold. The closing date on the Non-Branch Offices has been extended to September 16, 2024 and may be extended further.

    Under the Sale Agreements, the parties agreed, concurrently with the closing of the sale of the properties, to enter into triple net lease agreements (the “Lease Agreements”) pursuant to which Plumas Bank will lease each of the properties sold. Each Lease Agreement will have an initial term of fifteen years with one 15-year renewal option. The Lease Agreements will provide for an annual rent of approximately $3.1 million in the aggregate for all Properties of which $2.4 million relates to the completed branch sale, increased by two percent (2%) per annum for each year during the initial Term. During the renewal term, the initial rent will be the basic rent during the last year of the initial term, increased by two percent (2%) per annum for each year during the renewal term.

    The gain on sales of the branches was offset by losses on the sale of approximately $115 million in investment securities. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 we sold $115 million in investment securities having a weighted average tax equivalent yield of 2.24% recording a $19.8 million loss on the sales. Beginning in December 2023 and ending on March 27, 2024 we purchased $120 million in investments securities having a weighted average tax equivalent yield of 5.25%.  

    Loans, Deposits, Investments and Cash

    Gross loans increased by $62 million, or 7%, from $935 million at June 30, 2023, to $997 million at June 30, 2024. Increases in loans included $71 million in commercial real estate loans, $12 million in construction loans, $6 million in commercial loans, and $2 million in equity lines of credit; these items were partially offset by a decrease of $22 million in automobile loans, $3 million in agricultural loans, $3 million in residential real estate loans and $1 million in other loans.

    On June 30, 2024, approximately 75% of the Company's loan portfolio was comprised of variable rate loans. The rates of interest charged on variable rate loans are set at specific increments in relation to the Company's lending rate or other indexes such as the published prime interest rate or U.S. Treasury rates and vary with changes in these indexes. The frequency at which variable rate loans reprice can vary from one day to several years. Most of our commercial real estate portfolio reprices every five years. Approximately 72% of the variable rate loans are indexed to the five year T-Bill rate and reprice every five years. Loans indexed to the prime interest rate were approximately 25% of the Company’s variable rate loan portfolio; these loans reprice within one day to three months of a change in the prime rate.

    Total deposits decreased by $91 million to $1.3 billion at June 30, 2024. The decrease in deposits includes decreases of $46 million in demand deposits, and $51 million in savings deposits. Partially offsetting these declines was a $6 million increase in time deposits. We attribute much of the decrease to the current interest rate environment as we have seen some deposits leave for higher rates and some customers reluctant to borrow to fund operating expenses and instead have drawn down their excess deposit balances. Beginning in April 2023, we began offering a time deposit promotion offering 7-month and 11-month time deposits at an interest rate of 4%. Effective June 30, 2023, we discontinued this promotion which generated $46 million in deposits. However, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2023 we allowed those customers who had promotional time deposits to renew those deposits at similar terms. At June 30, 2024, 51% of the Company’s deposits were in the form of non-interest-bearing demand deposits. The Company has no brokered deposits.

    Total investment securities decreased by $24 million from $469 million at June 30, 2023, to $445 million at June 30, 2024. The Bank’s investment security portfolio consists of debt securities issued by US Government agencies, US Government sponsored agencies and municipalities. Cash and due from banks increased by $18 million from $92 million at June 30, 2023, to $110 million at June 30, 2024.

    Asset Quality

    Nonperforming assets (which are comprised of nonperforming loans, other real estate owned (“OREO”) and repossessed vehicle holdings) at June 30, 2024 were $9.1 million, down from $9.6 million at June 30, 2023. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets decreased to 0.56% at June 30, 2024 down from 0.61% at June 30, 2023. OREO increased by $58 thousand from $83 thousand at June 30, 2023 to $141 thousand at June 30, 2024. Nonperforming loans were $9.0 million at June 30, 2024 and $9.5 million at June 30, 2023. Included in nonperforming loans at June 30, 2024 were agricultural loans from one borrower totaling $6.2 million which were over 90 days past due but not nonaccrual. We received payments on these loans totaling $1.6 million in July and concurrently with these payments we extended the maturity of the loans to August 15, 2024 which allows time for the borrower to sell the crops securing the remaining balance of principal and interest on the loans. Nonaccrual loans totaled $2.5 million at June 30, 2024 and $4.5 million at June 30, 2023. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans decreased to 0.90% at June 30, 2024, down from 1.02% at June 30, 2023.

    During the first half of 2024 we recorded a provision for credit losses of $1.7 million consisting of a provision for credit losses on loans of $1.8 million and a decrease in the reserve for unfunded commitments of $79 thousand. The $1.8 million includes growth in the portfolio, net losses during the six-month period and an increase in loan delinquencies. This compares to a provision for credit losses of $2.9 million consisting of a provision for credit losses on loans of $2.6 million and an increase in the reserve for unfunded commitments of $325 thousand during the first six months of 2023.

    Net charge-offs, mostly related to our automobile loan portfolio, totaled $610 thousand and $411 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The allowance for credit losses totaled $14.1 million at June 30, 2024 and $13.4 million at June 30, 2023. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.41% and 1.43% at June 30, 2024 and 2023.

    The following tables present the activity in the allowance for credit losses and the reserve for unfunded commitments during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands).

    Shareholders’ Equity

    Total shareholders’ equity increased by $36.6 million from $128.6 million at June 30, 2023, to $165.2 million at June 30, 2024. The $36.6 million includes earnings during the twelve-month period totaling $28.5 million, a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $13.3 million and restricted stock and stock option activity totaling $0.9 million. These items were partially offset by the payment of cash dividends totaling $6.1 million.

    Bank Term Funding Program

    The Federal Reserve Board, on June 12, 2023, announced the creation of a new Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP). The BTFP offered loans of up to one year in length to banks, savings associations, credit unions, and other eligible depository institutions pledging U.S. Treasuries, agency debt and mortgage-backed securities, and other qualifying assets as collateral. These assets will be valued at par.  At December 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the BTFP totaling $80 million. In January 2024 the Company borrowed an additional $25 million under the BTFP for a total of $105 million outstanding at June 30, 2024.  This borrowing bears interest at the rate of 4.85% and is payable on January 17, 2025. Borrowings under the BTFP can be prepaid without penalty. There were no borrowings under the BTFP at June 30, 2023. Interest expense recognized on the BTFP borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $2.5 million.

    Liquidity

    The Company manages its liquidity to provide the ability to generate funds to support asset growth, meet deposit withdrawals (both anticipated and unanticipated), fund customers' borrowing needs and satisfy maturity of short-term borrowings. The Company’s liquidity needs are managed using assets or liabilities, or both. On the asset side, in addition to cash and due from banks, the Company maintains an investment portfolio which includes unpledged U.S. Government-sponsored agency securities that are classified as available-for-sale. On the liability side, liquidity needs are managed by offering competitive offering rates on deposit products and the use of established lines of credit.

    The Company is a member of the FHLB and can borrow up to $235 million from the FHLB secured by commercial and residential mortgage loans with carrying values totaling $431 million. In addition to its FHLB borrowing line, the Company has unsecured short-term borrowing agreements with two of its correspondent banks in the amounts of $50 million and $20 million. There were no outstanding borrowings from the FHLB or the correspondent banks at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023.

    The Company estimates that it has approximately $423 million in uninsured deposits. Of this amount, $100 million represents deposits that are collateralized such as deposits of states, municipalities and tribal accounts.

    Customer deposits are the Company’s primary source of funds. Total deposits decreased by $91 million from $1.4 billion at June 30, 2023 to $1.3 billion at June 30, 2024. Deposits are held in various forms with varying maturities.

    The Company’s securities portfolio, Federal funds sold, FHLB advances, and cash and due from banks serve as the primary sources of liquidity, providing adequate funding for loans during periods of high loan demand. During periods of decreased lending, funds obtained from the maturing or sale of investments, loan payments, and new deposits are invested in short-term earning assets, such as cash held at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Fransisco, Federal funds sold and investment securities, to serve as a source of funding for future loan growth. Management believes that the Company’s available sources of funds, including borrowings, will provide adequate liquidity for its operations in the foreseeable future.

    Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin – Three Months Ended June 30, 2024

    Net interest income was $18.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $1.2 million from the same period in 2023. The increase in net interest income includes an increase of $2.9 million in interest income partially offset by an increase of $1.8 million in interest expense. Interest and fees on loans increased by $2.0 million related to growth in the loan portfolio and an increase in yield on the portfolio.

    Average loan balances increased by $61 million, while the average yield on these loans increased by 48 basis points from 5.84% during the second quarter of 2023 to 6.32% during the current quarter. The increase in loan yield includes the effect of an increase in market rates. The average prime interest rate increased from 8.16% during the second quarter of 2023 to 8.50% during the current quarter. Additionally, during the current quarter we recovered $316 thousand in interest on loans that were classified as nonaccrual and which were paid off in full during the quarter.

    Interest on investment securities increased by $669 thousand related to an increase in yield of 86 basis points to 4.11%. The increase in investment yields is consistent with the increase in market rates and the restructuring of the investment portfolio discussed earlier. Average investment securities declined from $478 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $444 million during the current quarter. Interest on cash balances increased by $249 thousand related to an increase in average balance of $13 million and an increase in rate earned on these balances of 37 basis points from 5.14% during the three months ended June 30, 2023 to 5.51% during the current quarter. The increase in rate earned was mostly related to an increase in the rate paid on balances held at the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB). The average rate earned on FRB balances increased from 5.06% during the second quarter of 2023 to 5.40% during the current quarter.

    Interest expense increased from $984 thousand during the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $2.8 million during the current period related to an increase in rate paid on interest bearing liabilities and an increase in borrowings. The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities increased from 0.56% during the 2023 quarter to 1.44% in 2024 related mainly to an increase in market interest rates, an increase in borrowings and the effect of a 4% time deposit promotion.

    Interest paid on deposits increased by $452 thousand and is broken down by product type as follows: money market accounts - $130 thousand and time deposits - $356 thousand. Related to a decline in average balance of $61 million, interest on savings deposits declined by $34 thousand. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits increased from 0.51% during the second quarter of 2023 to 0.84% during the current quarter.

    During the fourth quarter of 2023 we borrowed $80 million under the BTFP and during January 2024 we increased this borrowing by $25 million to a total of $105 million. Additionally, we increased Plumas Bancorp's borrowing on its line of credit to $15 million during the first quarter of 2024. Interest incurred on these borrowings totaled $1.4 million and $113 thousand during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The increase in net interest income includes an increase of $5.2 million in interest income partially offset by an increase of $3.7 million in interest expense.

    Interest and fees on loans increased by $3.9 million related to an increase in average balance and yield. The average balance of loans during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $972 million, an increase of $55 million from $917 million during the same period in 2023. The average yield on loans increased by 48 basis points from 5.73% during the first six months of 2023 to 6.21% during the current period.

    Interest on investment securities increased by $1.3 million related to an increase in yield of 65 basis points to 3.89%. The increase in investment yields is consistent with the increase in market rates and the restructuring of the investment portfolio. Average investment securities declined from $472 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $462 million during the current period. Interest on cash balances declined by $78 thousand as an increase in yield of 70 basis points was offset by a decline in average balance from $97.1 million during the first six months of 2023 to $81.8 million in the current period.

    Interest expense increased from $1.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $5.3 million during the current period related to an increase in rate paid on interest bearing liabilities and an increase in borrowings. The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities increased from 0.46% during the 2023 period to 1.39% in 2024 related mainly to an increase in market interest rates, an increase in borrowings and the effect of a 4% time deposit promotion.

    Net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased 10 basis points to 4.76%, up from 4.66% for the same period in 2023.

    Non-Interest Income/Expense – Three Months Ended June 30, 2024

    Non-interest income increased by $59 thousand to $2.2 million during the current quarter. Increases of $49 thousand in service charge income, $50 thousand in Federal Home Loan Bank dividends and $57 thousand in other non-interest income were partially offset by declines in interchange income of $42 thousand and loan servicing fees of $55 thousand.

    During the three months ended June 30, 2024, total non-interest expense increased by $1.3 million from $9.1 million during the second quarter of 2023 to $10.4 million during the current quarter. The largest components of this increase were an increase in salary and benefit expense of $417 thousand and an increase in occupancy and equipment costs of $696 thousand. The increase in salary and benefit expense primarily relates to an increase in salary expense and commissions. Salary expense increased by $197 thousand which we attribute primarily to merit and promotional salary increases and an increase in employees. Our full time equivalent employee count has increased from 176 at June 30, 2023 to 185 at June 30, 2024. Commissions increased by $328 thousand related mostly to SBA production which has been quite strong during 2024. In the second half of 2023, our SBA department moved from producing variable rate SBA 7(a) loans indexed to prime to fixed rate SBA 7(a) loans. We had experienced a significant decline in the market for the variable rate SBA loans; however, we have successfully transitioned to the fixed rate product. We portfolio the fixed rate SBA loans we generate. During the three months ended June 30, 2024 fixed rate SBA loans balances increased by $20 million. Partially offsetting the increase in salary and commission expense was an increase in the deferral of loan origination cost of $254 thousand related to the increase in SBA loan production. Occupancy and equipment costs increased by $696 thousand related to an increase in rent expense of $685 thousand related to the sales/leaseback transaction.

    Non-Interest Income/Expense – Six Months Ended June 30, 2024

    During the six months ended June 30, 2024, non-interest income totaled $4.3 million, a decrease of $1.7 million from the six months ended June 30, 2023. The largest component of this decrease was a $1.7 million gain on termination of our interest rate swaps during the 2023 quarter. As discussed earlier, during the first quarter of 2024, a $19.9 million gain on sale of buildings was offset by a $19.8 million loss on investment securities.

    During the six months ended June 30, 2024 non-interest expense increased by $2.5 million to $20.8 million. The largest components of this increase were a $716 thousand increase in salary and benefit expenses and a $1.0 million increase in occupancy and equipment expense. The largest increases in salary and benefit expense were $384 thousand in salary expense and $435 thousand in commission expense. These were partially offset by an increase in the deferral of loan origination costs of $392 thousand related to an increase in SBA production. The increase in occupancy and equipment costs relates to a $1.0 million increase in rent expense related to the sales/leaseback transaction.
