Oregon Pacific Bancorp Announces 2023 Earnings Results

Oregon Pacific Bancorp (ORPB), the holding company of Oregon Pacific Bank, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter ended, and year ended, December 31, 2023.

Highlights:

  • Fourth quarter net income of $2.2 million; $0.31 per diluted share
  • Quarterly loan growth of $11.4 million or 2.18%
  • Quarterly tax equivalent net interest margin of 3.64%
  • Annual return on average assets of 1.22%
  • Annual loan growth of $53.7 million or 11.11%
  • Portland office grand opening November 1, 2023

Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, was $2.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share compared to $2.3 million or $0.33 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. On an annual basis, the Bank recorded net income totaling $9.2 million, or $1.30 per diluted share compared to $7.1 million, or $1.01 per diluted share for the same period in 2022.

“We are happy to report the Bank’s strong financial performance as 2023 comes to a close,” said Ron Green, President and Chief Executive Officer. “During the year, Oregon Pacific Bank made a material investment in expansion into the Portland Market, and we are happy to report that despite these expenses, the Bank achieved record profitability during 2023. We continue to look for the best bankers in the Portland-metro area, and in all markets that we serve, who might be seeking a team-oriented community bank culture. Strategic hires may occur in 2024 if opportunities arise. We continue to be excited about the prospects for organic growth throughout the state of Oregon.”

Period-end loans, net of deferred loan origination fees, totaled $536.7 million, representing quarterly growth of $11.4 million, or 2.18%. The fourth quarter loan yield grew to 5.15%, representing an increase of 0.08% over the prior quarter as new loan production is occurring at a rate higher than the existing portfolio yield. Quarterly loan production for new and renewed loans totaled $33.5 million, with a weighted average effective rate of 6.90% and a weighted-average repricing life of 4.89 years.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Bank reversed $70 thousand in provision for credit losses. This net reversal occurred due to the combination of $80 thousand of provision for credit loss expense on loans and reversal of $150 thousand for provision for credit loss expense on unfunded commitments. The reduction in provision for unfunded commitments occurred primarily due to advances on lines of credit, shifting the reserve from the reserve for unfunded commitments into the Allowance for Credit Losses and overall improvements in external credit quality indicators. During the quarter, the Bank also experienced an increase in classified assets, defined as loans and loan contingent liabilities internally graded substandard or worse, impaired loans, adversely classified securities and other real estate owned, totaling $4.9 million. The increase occurred due to the downgrading of three loan relationships totaling $2.5 million, $1.2 million and $880 thousand, respectively, into substandard classification. Two of the downgraded relationships are nonprofits that have experienced mid-year reductions in revenue and are updating their forecasted operating budgets to reflect expense adjustments for the coming fiscal year. One relationship is undergoing a property improvement plan for a conversion to a branded hotel flag that has experienced delays. All loans continue to pay as agreed and are well-secured with commercial real estate.

The Bank’s cost of funds moved to 1.00% during the fourth quarter 2023, compared to 0.86% during the third quarter 2023, resulting in a quarterly increase in interest expense of $342 thousand. The Bank experienced quarterly deposit contraction totaling $9.5 million compared to deposit totals at September 30, 2023.

“Deposits contracted during the quarter as clients self-funded projects or looked for alternative investments,” commented John Raleigh, Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer. “The Bank has focused on retaining relationship deposits through targeted incremental interest rate adjustments to remain competitive, also acknowledging that some deposit movement is not interest rate related.”

During the fourth quarter a large client continued to utilize excess cash to fund a large construction project, with their deposit usage totaling approximately $3 million. Additionally, another depositor utilized excess cash of $2.6 million to purchase commercial real estate.

Noninterest income totaled $1.8 million during the fourth quarter 2023 and represented growth of $52 thousand over third quarter 2023. The largest increase in non-interest income occurred in the trust fee income category, which grew $96 thousand over the prior quarter, primarily due to growth in trust assets under management (AUM). Trust revenue continues to be the Bank’s strongest source of noninterest income and a differentiator amongst similarly sized community banks. Trust revenue has historically been consistent, and it is generally not affected by economic factors such as interest rates or the stock market that could impact other lines of noninterest income including mortgage or investment advisory services. The Bank has five trust officers across its markets and believes this location-based service will enable future growth of this business line.

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter 2023 totaled $5.7 million, representing an increase of $108 thousand over the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The largest expense fluctuation totaled $84 thousand and occurred in the occupancy and equipment category. The growth in this expense was attributable to two facility updates: 1) the opening of the Portland Office, located at 16101 SW 72nd Ave in Tigard on November 1, 2023 and 2) the full quarter of expense associated with the Bank’s new administrative building, located in Eugene at 1045 Willagillespie Rd. The Bank purchased a building in December 2021 with plans to develop the building into the Eugene administrative headquarters due to the growth of Eugene-based employees. This building was renovated throughout 2023, with staff moving into the location in September 2023. The additional quarterly expense is anticipated to be a permanent change moving into 2024.
