CBNK Announces Record Quarterly Earnings

Diluted EPS of $0.80, ROAA of 2.23%, and ROAE of 22.16% for 2Q 2022


ROCKVILLE, Md., July 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: CBNK), the holding company for Capital Bank, N.A. (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $11.5 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2022 representing 19.3% growth when compared to net income of $9.6 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021. Net portfolio loans increased $81.4 million, or 21.4 percent annualized, during the second quarter.

"Loan growth, stable deposit costs, OpenSky® performance and lower than anticipated expenses drove another quarter of outstanding performance," said Ed Barry, CEO of the Company and the Bank. "Credit quality in our commercial and consumer loan portfolios remains stable with an anticipated increase in loss provisions in our OpenSky® loan portfolio. Continued aggressive marketing by fintech and credit card companies offering unsecured subprime credit cards has resulted in account growth headwinds in OpenSky®, but we are confident that our approach to serving this market and our investments to scale our platform will continue to deliver substantial profits in this business. Our multi-year effort to transform our deposit franchise continues to show results and will help drive results in the rising rate environment."

"We are pleased with how well Capital Bank's diversified business model continues to perform despite changes in macroeconomic conditions" said Steven Schwartz, Chairman of the Board of the Company. "Our extremely dedicated management team and fully engaged Board remain focused on increasing shareholder value by improving our unique mix of products with the adoption of state-of-the-art technology to deliver coveted financial solutions to our customers."

Second Quarter 2022 Highlights

Capital Bancorp, Inc.

  • Record Earnings - Continued strong performance by the Commercial Bank and OpenSky® contributed to the second quarter's record results. Quarterly net income increased to $11.5 million from $9.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 due mainly to increased net interest income due to loan growth and an increase in rates. The increase in net interest income was offset by an increase in the loan loss provision and a decrease in noninterest income. Earnings were $0.80 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and $0.68 for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
  • Continued Outstanding Performance Ratios - Return on average assets ("ROAA") and return on average equity ("ROAE") were 2.23% and 22.16%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 1.90% and 22.36%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
  • Expanded Net Interest Margin - Net interest margin was 7.06% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 5.47% for the same three month period last year. The margin expansion was primarily driven by increases in the yield on portfolio loans including credit card loans to card holders whose accounts have been open for more than a year as origination costs on these accounts are amortized in the first year and no longer offset annual renewal fees. Rate increases in our adjustable rate portfolios also contributed to the margin expansion.
  • Robust Capital Positions - As of June 30, 2022, the Company reported a common equity tier 1 capital ratio of 15.55% and an allowance for loan losses to total portfolio loans ratio of 1.63%, or 1.64% excluding SBA-PPP loans. Tangible book value per common share grew 15.0 percent to $14.80 at June 30, 2022 when compared to the same quarter in 2021.

Commercial Bank

  • Strong Portfolio Loan Growth - Portfolio loans, excluding credit cards, increased by $199.2 million, or 15.6 percent, to $1.5 billion at June 30, 2022 compared to June 30, 2021. This growth was mainly due to a 29.0 percent increase in commercial real estate loans of $136.8 million, of which $92.9 million was owner occupied. Also contributing to the growth was a 22.0 percent increase in commercial and industrial loans of $34.9 million and an 7.8 percent increase in construction real estate loans of $17.4 million when comparing the quarter ended June 30, 2022 to the quarter ended June 30, 2021.
  • Improving Credit Metrics - Non-performing assets ("NPAs") decreased to 0.34% of total assets at June 30, 2022 compared to 0.54% at June 30, 2021 with the disposition of $3.2 million in other real estate owned and a reduction in nonaccrual loans of $1.0 million as management continues to focus on reducing non-performing assets. The provision for loan losses increased $1.3 million compared to the second quarter of 2021. The current provision for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $2.0 million and was related to the growth in the unsecured credit card loans and secured customer attrition which tends to result in an increase in charge offs of certain fees in excess of the secured portion of the loan.
  • SBA-PPP Loans - SBA-PPP loans, net of $301 thousand in unearned fees, totaled $15.9 million at June 30, 2022 which was comprised of $1.4 million in 2020 originations and $14.7 million of 2021 originations. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has obtained forgiveness for $359.5 million of SBA-PPP loans.

Capital Bank Home Loans

  • Slowing Mortgage Originations - Origination volumes declined 68.2 percent, to $84.4 million, in the second quarter of 2022, when compared to $265.5 million in the second quarter of 2021. The continued steepening of the yield curve in the second quarter of 2022 slowed originations from the year earlier when low interest rates fueled refinance volumes.
  • Purchase Volume - While purchase volumes increased to 85.2 percent of total originations for the second quarter of 2022, up from 50.6 percent during the second quarter of 2021, total purchase originations declined by 46.7% during the same period.

OpenSky®

  • Strong Revenue Growth - OpenSky® revenue grew by 22.1 percent to $23.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 from the same period in 2021 due to an increase in average credit card loan balances as well as an increase in the yield on those credit card loans. Normal customer attrition and aggressive marketing by fintech and credit card companies offering unsecured subprime credit cards has resulted in the continued decline in the total number of OpenSky® accounts.
  • Continued Growth in OpenSky® Loans - OpenSky® loan balances, net of reserves, increased by $20.8 million to $142.2 million compared to $121.4 million in the second quarter of 2021. Corresponding deposit balances decreased 11.4 percent or $27.6 million from $241.7 million at June 30, 2021 to $214.1 million at June 30, 2022.

2022 Highlights

Capital Bancorp

  • Diversified Businesses Drive Net Income - Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased 16.6 percent to $21.7 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, from $18.6 million, or $1.32 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Continued strong operating results demonstrate the advantages of the Company's diversified business lines that are, in certain respects, non-correlated across economic cycles.
  • Top Tier Performance Ratios - Improved earnings supported ROAA and ROAE of 2.12% and 21.25%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 1.88% and 22.33%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
  • Expanded Net Interest Margin - For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net interest margin increased by 161 basis points to 6.93% compared to 5.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The margin improvement was primarily driven by increases in the yield on portfolio loans including credit card loans to card holders whose accounts have been open for more than a year as origination costs on these accounts are amortized in the first year and no longer offset annual renewal fees.. Rate increases in our adjustable rate portfolios also contributed to the margin expansion.
  • Stable Efficiency Ratio - The efficiency ratio decreased to 63.52% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 66.73% for the same six month period in the prior year.
  • Strong Balance Sheet Growth - Total assets increased $99.5 million, or 4.8 percent during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and was primarily funded by a $91.8 million increase in deposits.The growth of earning assets on the balance sheet consisted primarily of increases in cash equivalents of $67.5 million, portfolio loans net of deferred fees of $83.7 million which includes OpenSky® net loan growth of $15.8 million, and investment securities available for sale of $42.1 million. Asset growth was primarily offset by a decrease of $92.4 million in SBA-PPP loans.

Commercial Bank

  • Strong Portfolio Loan Growth - During the first six months of 2022, portfolio loans, excluding credit card loans, increased by $84.2 million, or 12.2 percent on an annualized basis, to $1.5 billion at June 30, 2022 compared to the first six months of 2021 when portfolio loans, excluding credit card loans, increased by $61.0 million to $1.3 billion at June 30, 2021. The 2022 growth was primarily due to a $52.3 million increase in commercial real estate loans, of which $47.7 million was owner occupied, and a $28.6 million increase in residential real estate.
  • Improved Deposit Franchise and Lower Cost of Funding - While total deposits at June 30, 2022 decreased in comparison to total deposits at June 30, 2021, the composition of the deposit portfolio has continued to shift into a more favorable source of funding. Noninterest bearing deposits continue to grow and represented 44.6 percent of total deposits at June 30, 2022. The cost of interest bearing liabilities declined to 0.43% from 0.73% for the same period in the prior year, due mainly to the run-off of higher cost time deposits which have been replaced with lower cost money market accounts.
  • COVID-19 Related Deferrals - At June 30, 2022, outstanding loans deferred due to COVID-19 amounted to $2.3 million, a decrease of 86.9 percent from $11.9 million at June 30, 2021.

Capital Bank Home Loans

  • Gain on Sale - The year-to-date gain on sale of mortgage loans decreased to $5.0 million at June 30, 2022 from $19.8 million at June 30, 2021 due mainly to the $424.4 million, or 68.5 percent, decline in mortgage originations. The steepening yield curve in 2022 has slowed originations from the year earlier period when low interest rates fueled refinance volumes. Gain on sale margins, down slightly from 2.91% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, remained strong at 2.48% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Historically-low housing inventory, shortages in new home building materials, and fluctuating interest rates are likely to continue suppressing origination volumes into 2022.

OpenSky®

  • Balance Growth Offsets Account Attrition - Gross credit card balances increased by $20.7 million, or 16.7 percent, at June 30, 2022 when compared to June 30, 2021. The growth in credit card loan balances coupled with an increase in interest rates accounted for the $12.4 million growth in interest income when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2022 to the same period in 2021. A decrease in overall credit card accounts led to a reduction in credit card fees, which decreased by 11.1 percent to $12.1 million compared to $13.7 million for the same six month period last year.

Operating Results - Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net interest income increased $7.9 million, or 28.6 percent, to $35.4 million from the same period in 2021, primarily due to an increase in interest earned on the credit card loan portfolio. The net interest margin increased 159 basis points to 7.06% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from the same period in 2021 due in large part to the acceleration of the deferred fees associated with the SBA-PPP loan forgiveness as well as the recognition of deferred fees on the credit card loans. Net interest margin, excluding credit card and SBA-PPP loans, was 3.86% for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 3.55% for the same period in 2021. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, average interest earning assets decreased $4.9 million, or 0.2 percent, to $2.0 billion as compared to the same period in 2021, and the average yield on interest earning assets increased 147 basis points. Compared to the same period in the prior year, average interest bearing liabilities decreased $60.0 million, or 5.5 percent, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 20 basis points to 0.45% from 0.65%.

The provision for loan losses of $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was related to growth in the credit card portfolio and the cycling of credit card accounts. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2022 were $868 thousand, or 0.23% on an annualized basis of average portfolio loans, compared to $252 thousand, or 0.08% on an annualized basis of average loans for the second quarter of 2021. All of the $868 thousand in net charge-offs during the quarter were related to the credit card portfolio.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, noninterest income was $8.4 million, a decrease of $5.1 million, or 37.9 percent, from $13.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily the result of reduced mortgage banking revenue.

Net credit card loan balances increased by $20.8 million to $142.2 million as of June 30, 2022 from $121.4 million at June 30, 2021. The related deposit account balances decreased 11.4 percent to $214.1 million at June 30, 2022 when compared to $241.7 million at June 30, 2021. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, OpenSky's® secured credit card accounts decreased by 14 thousand net compared to 65 thousand net new accounts for the same period in 2021 as the elevated new account originations related to Covid stimulus payments subside.

The efficiency ratio for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased to 62.00% compared to 66.37% for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Noninterest expense was $27.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $27.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $74 thousand, or 0.3 percent. The decrease was primarily driven by decreases in data processing expenses of $2.9 million and loan processing expenses of $640 thousand, and were offset by increases in salaries and employee benefits of $1.3 million, advertising expenses of $930 thousand, and professional fees of $1.1 million.

Operating Results - Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net interest income increased $16.8 million, or 32.3 percent, to $68.7 million from the same period in 2021, primarily due to an increase in average balances in the portfolio loans. The net interest margin increased 161 basis points to 6.93% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from the same period in 2021. Net interest margin, excluding credit card and SBA-PPP loans, was 3.84% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 3.59% for the same period in 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, average interest earning assets increased $30.8 million, or 1.6 percent, to $2.0 billion as compared to the same period in 2021, and the average yield on interest earning assets increased 143 basis points. Compared to the same period in the prior year, average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $56.9 million, or 5.2 percent, while the average cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 30 basis points to 0.43% from 0.73%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the provision for loan losses was $3.0 million, an increase of $1.7 million from the prior year. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $1.7 million, or 0.23% annualized of average portfolio loans, compared to $640 thousand, or 0.10% annualized of average portfolio loans, for the same period in 2021. The $1.7 million in net charge-offs during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was comprised of credit card portfolio net charge-offs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, noninterest income was $16.7 million, a decrease of $10.8 million, or 39.3 percent, from the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by the reduction in mortgage banking revenues of $9.7 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Bank had a net decrease of 44 thousand OpenSky® secured credit card accounts, decreasing the total number of open accounts to 616 thousand. This compares to 139 thousand net new originations for the same period last year, which increased total open accounts to 708 thousand.

The efficiency ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased to 63.52% compared to 66.73% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to increases in interest income.

Noninterest expense was $54.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $53.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $1.3 million, or 2.4 percent. The increase was primarily driven by a $3.1 million, or 17.7 percent, increase in salaries and benefits, an increase in professional fees of 58.6 percent, or $1.8 million, and an $1.7 million, or 81.7 percent, increase in advertising expense. The increase was partially offset by a $3.9 million, or 20.0 percent, decrease in data processing and a $1.3 million, or 64.1 percent, decrease in loan processing. The decrease of $3.9 million in data processing expenses was primarily due to a contract renegotiation.

Financial Condition

Total assets at June 30, 2022 were $2.2 billion, comparable to the balance at June 30, 2021. Net portfolio loans, which exclude mortgage loans held for sale and SBA-PPP loans, totaled $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2022, an increase of 15.5 percent as compared to $1.4 billion at June 30, 2021.

While total deposits were $1.9 billion for the period ended June 30, 2022, a slight decline from the balance at June 30, 2021, the composition of the deposit portfolio shifted, with a decrease in higher costing time deposits of $121.9 million, or 43.1 percent, when comparing June 30, 2022 to June 30, 2021 to lower costing money market accounts and noninterest bearing accounts. At June 30, 2022, there were no listing service or brokered deposits compared to $68.2 million at June 30, 2021.

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $3.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, which increased the allowance for loan losses to $26.4 million, or 1.63% of total loans (1.64%, excluding SBA-PPP loans, on a non-GAAP basis) at June 30, 2022. Nonperforming assets were $7.3 million, or 0.34% of total assets, as of June 30, 2022, down from $11.6 million, or 0.54% of total assets, at June 30, 2021, and was comprised solely of nonperforming loans. Included in nonperforming loans at June 30, 2022 were troubled debt restructurings of $519 thousand.

Stockholders’ equity increased to $207.3 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $177.2 million at June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to earnings during the period of $21.7 million which were offset by unrealized losses recorded net of tax on the available for sale securities in the rising interest rate environment creating a $12.3 million reduction in accumulated other comprehensive income during the period. As of June 30, 2022, the Bank's capital ratios continued to exceed the regulatory requirements for a “well-capitalized” institution.
