WOOSTER, Ohio, Aug. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Main Street Financial Services Corp. (OTCQX: MSWV), (the “Company”), the holding company parent of Main Street Bank Corp. reported a net loss (unaudited) of $3.5 million, or $0.68 per common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Excluding the merger-related expenses (non-GAAP) for the three months ended June 30, 2024, net income was $1.9 million, or $0.38 per share. Merger-related expenses totaled $6.7 million for the quarter, including $4.6 million attributed to the loss provision expense, $2.1 million in noninterest expense, and a tax-related impact of $1.3 million.
The return on average equity and return on average assets for the second quarter of 2024 was (17.16)% and (1.38)%, compared to 14.36% and 0.92%, for the second quarter of 2023. Excluding merger-related expenses (non-GAAP), return on average equity and return on average assets for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, was 9.56% and 0.77%, respectively.
The Company announced a merger of equals transaction with Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. (“Legacy Wayne”) on February 23, 2023. On May 31, 2024 (the “Merger Date”), the Company completed the transaction, forming a financial holding company with assets of $1.4 billion. On the Merger Date, Legacy Wayne merged with and into Main Street, with Main Street surviving the merger (the “Merger”). Immediately following the Merger, Main Street’s wholly owned bank subsidiary, Main Street Bank Corp., merged with and into Wayne Savings Community Bank, with Wayne Savings Community Bank surviving the merger. Upon completion of the Merger, Wayne Savings Community Bank was renamed Main Street Bank Corp.
The Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger using the acquisition method of accounting, therefore, Legacy Wayne was deemed the acquirer for financial reporting purposes, even though Main Street was the legal acquirer. Accordingly, Legacy Wayne’s historical financial statements are the historical financial statements of the combined company for all periods before the Merger Date. Our consolidated statements of income for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, include the results from Main Street on and after May 31, 2024. Results for periods before May 31, 2024, reflect only those of Legacy Wayne and do not include the consolidated statements of income of Main Street. Accordingly, comparisons of our results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, with those of prior periods may not be meaningful. The number of shares issued and outstanding, earnings per share, dividends paid and all references to share quantities of Main Street have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the equivalent number of shares issued in the Merger.
On July 16, 2024, the Company was qualified to begin trading on the OTCQX Best Market, enabling more transparent trading and easier access to company information for shareholders. On July 19, 2024, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.14. The quarterly cash dividend will be paid on August 16, 2024, to stockholders of record as of August 2, 2024.
President and CEO James R. VanSickle commented “I would like to thank all of my teammates at Main Street Bank for their dedication and hard work during the merger and core-processing system conversion this quarter. We remain focused on the merger integration process and ensuring our customers and our communities receive a first-class banking experience.”
Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Net interest income was $6.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, up 12.0% from $5.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The net interest margin of 2.69% for the second quarter of 2024 decreased 46 basis points from 3.15% for the second quarter of 2023. Loan yields were 5.78% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, up 66 basis points when compared to 5.12% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The cost of funds for the second quarter of 2024, was 2.69%, up 106 basis points when compared to the second quarter of 2023. The cost of funds increase is largely due to utilizing higher-cost wholesale funding, such as FHLB advances and brokered certificates of deposit, and shifting deposit composition to higher-yielding product offerings.
A provision for credit losses and unfunded commitments of $4.7 million was recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The recognized provision expense was primarily due to the acquired loan portfolio, including the impact of “Day 2” non-purchased credit deteriorated loans (“non-PCD”) accounting treatment and a reserve for unfunded commitments. The non-PCD related provision expense was $4.2 million, and the provision expense related to unfunded commitments was $0.4 million, totaling $4.6 million in merger-related (non-GAAP) provision.
Noninterest expense totaled $6.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $2.8 million when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2023. Merger-related noninterest expenses (non-GAAP) totaled $2.1 million for the quarter, consisting of $0.9 million in professional fees, $0.7 million in compensation, $0.3 million in other expense and $0.2 million in legal expense. Excluding merger-related expenses (non-GAAP), the Company’s efficiency ratio was 65.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to 61.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
June 30, 2024 Financial Condition
At June 30, 2024, the Company had total assets of $1.4 billion with net loan balances totaling $1.1 billion, which includes a gross balance of $431.4 million in acquired loans from the merger transaction and $12.7 million of organic loan growth during the quarter. Additionally, the Company elected to sell approximately $27 million of the acquired securities portfolio and pay down existing FHLB advances.
The allowance for credit losses was $11.7 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $7.3 million at December 31, 2023. The increase is a result of establishing an allowance for credit losses on the acquired non-PCD loan portfolio during the second quarter of 2024. The allowance for credit losses and the related provision for credit losses is based on management’s judgment and evaluation of the loan portfolio. Management believes the current allowance for credit losses is adequate, however, changing economic and other conditions may require future adjustments to the allowance for credit losses.
Total nonperforming loans (NPLs) was $6.0 million at June 30, 2024, an increase from $0.4 million at December 31, 2023. The NPL to loan ratio was 0.53% as of June 30, 2024. Past due loan balances of 30 days and more increased from $2.8 million at December 31, 2023, to $4.2 million at June 30, 2024. The increase in nonperforming and past due loans is due to the impact of the acquired loan portfolio.
Total liabilities increased to $1.3 billion at June 30, 2024. Total deposits increased to $1.1 billion primarily due to the assumption of $487.4 million in deposits from the merger transaction. The increase in deposits was partially offset by a reduction in the utilization of brokered deposits from $116.7 million at December 31, 2023 to no brokered deposits at June 30, 2024.
Total stockholders’ equity was $105.9 million at June 30, 2024, an increase of $52.9 million when compared to the December 31, 2023 balance. The increase was primarily driven by the merger between Main Street and Wayne. Total aggregate consideration for the merger was $49.3 million, generating approximately $2.6 million in preliminary goodwill subject to adjustment in accordance with ASC 805. The Company’s tangible book value (non-GAAP) was $11.75 per share at June 30, 2024.
