MINEOLA, N.Y., Jan. 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hanover Bancorp, Inc. (“Hanover” or “the Company” – NASDAQ: HNVR), the holding company for Hanover Community Bank (“the Bank”), today reported significant performance achievements for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 highlighted by strong loan growth in addition to record levels of assets, loans and tangible book value per share.

Earnings Summary for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2022
The Company reported net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 of $5.3 million or $0.72 per diluted share (includes Series A preferred shares), versus $6.5 million or $1.16 per diluted share in the comparable year ago period, representing a decrease of $1.2 million or 20.6%. Excluding the impact of net purchase accounting accretion, the Company’s net income was $5.1 million or $0.69 per diluted share (includes Series A preferred shares) in the quarter ended December 31, 2022 versus net income of $5.3 million or $0.93 per diluted share in the comparable 2021 period. In connection with the Company’s initial public offering in May 2022, average shares outstanding increased to 7,292,940 in the 2022 period from 5,562,939 in the comparable period of 2021. Returns on average assets and average stockholders’ equity were 1.18% and 12.04%, respectively, in the quarter ended December 31, 2022, versus 1.80% and 20.52%, respectively, in the comparable 2021 quarter, and 1.39% and 13.45% in the linked 2022 quarter.
The decline in net income recorded in the fourth calendar quarter of 2022 versus the comparable 2021 quarter resulted primarily from an increase in the provision for loan losses expense due to growth in the loan portfolio in the fourth calendar quarter of 2022, a decrease in gain on sale of loans and a decrease in purchase accounting accretion. Gains on the sales of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans were lower than expected in the quarter due to various factors, including the sustained reduction in SBA premiums and loan closing delays due to borrower considerations.
Net interest income remained flat at $15.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 and the comparable 2021 quarter due to compression of the Company’s net interest margin to 3.49% in the 2022 quarter from 4.39% in the comparable 2021 quarter. The yield on interest earning assets increased to 5.17% in the 2022 quarter from 4.77% in the comparable 2021 quarter, an increase of 40 basis points, offset by a 160 basis point increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 2.08% in 2022 from 0.48% in the fourth calendar quarter of 2021.
Michael P. Puorro, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented on the Company’s quarterly results: “We are pleased with our results of the fourth calendar quarter of 2022 given the challenging economic environment the industry is currently experiencing. We again demonstrated strong organic loan growth of $123.3 million, or 30.4% annualized, during the fourth quarter, while continuing to generate solid credit quality metrics as evidenced by the decrease in non-performing assets. Despite the rapid and significant rise in interest rates, we were able to increase core deposits by $278 million or 33% year over year and, excluding purchase accounting, were able to minimize NIM compression for the first three quarters of the year. Although we experienced delayed deposit pricing pressure during the fourth quarter, which resulted in an increase in our cost of funds and a reduction in net interest income, we generated quality earnings of $5.3 million for the quarter, coupled with competitive financial performance metrics as evidenced by our continued growth in tangible book value per share and an operating efficiency ratio of 49.6%. In 2023, we will continue to focus on low-cost core deposit generation, growing our lending verticals while maintaining strong credit quality, and prudent expense management. We are also progressing on the buildout and talent acquisition of the planned Hauppauge location.”
Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets at December 31, 2022 were $1.98 billion versus $1.84 billion at September 30, 2022. Total deposits at December 31, 2022 decreased slightly to $1.52 billion compared to $1.53 billion at September 30, 2022.
The Company had $383.6 million in total municipal deposits at December 31, 2022, at a weighted average rate of 2.66% versus $416.9 million at September 30, 2022. The Company’s municipal deposit program is built on long-standing relationships developed in the local marketplace. This core deposit business will continue to provide a stable source of funding for the Company’s lending products at costs significantly lower than both consumer deposits and market-based borrowings.
Total borrowings at December 31, 2022 were $238.3 million with a weighted average rate and term of 3.92% and 4 months, respectively. At December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, the Company had $37.8 million of term FHLB advances outstanding. At December 31, 2022, the Company had $187.0 million in FHLB overnight borrowings outstanding at a rate of 4.61% versus $55.0 million at September 30, 2022. The Company’s Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility advances declined to $8.5 million at December 31, 2022, versus $9.0 million at September 30, 2022, as the Company’s PPP loans were forgiven or repaid.
Stockholders’ equity increased to $177.6 million at December 31, 2022 from $172.6 million at September 30, 2022, resulting in an increase in tangible book value per share (includes Series A preferred shares) to $21.66 at December 31, 2022 from $21.00 at September 30, 2022. This increase was primarily due to net income earned during the fourth calendar quarter of 2022.
Loan Portfolio Growth and Allowance for Loan Losses
On a linked quarter basis, the Company exhibited net loan growth of $123.3 million, a 30.4% increase on an annualized basis. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, the Bank’s loan portfolio grew to $1.75 billion, for an increase of 44.3% excluding PPP loans. Year over year growth was concentrated primarily in multi-family, commercial real estate and residential loans. At December 31, 2022, the Company’s residential loan portfolio (including home equity) amounted to $576.5 million, with an average loan balance of $482 thousand and a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 57%. Commercial real estate and multifamily loans totaled $1.12 billion at December 31, 2022, with an average loan balance of $1.48 million and a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 60%. The Company’s commercial real estate concentration ratio was 470% of capital at December 31, 2022 versus 453% of capital at September 30, 2022. At December 31, 2022, the Company’s loan pipeline was approximately $142 million.
Historically, the Bank has generated additional income by strategically originating and selling its primary lending products to other financial institutions at premiums, while also retaining servicing rights in some sales. The Bank expects that it will continue to originate loans, for its own portfolio and for sale, which will result in continued growth in interest income while also realizing gains on sale of loans to others and recording servicing income. With respect to the Bank’s current residential growth strategy, management expects to originate more loans to retain in its portfolio as opposed to selling into the secondary market due to the continued projected increase in interest rates. Accordingly, we continue to expect a decrease in secondary market sales on a year-over-year basis in the current interest rate environment. During the quarter ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold $8.1 million in SBA loans and recorded gains on the sale of loans held-for-sale of $578 thousand. The Company recorded gains of $1.5 million on the sale of performing residential and SBA loans in the quarter ended December 31, 2021.
During the fourth calendar quarter of 2022, the Bank recorded a provision for loan losses expense of $1.5 million. The December 31, 2022, allowance for loan losses balance was $14.4 million versus $12.8 million at September 30, 2022. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 0.82% at December 31, 2022 versus 0.79% at September 30, 2022. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans excluding acquired loans (“originated loans”) was 0.95% at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, non-performing loans totaled $11.8 million of which $9.8 million represented legacy Savoy originated loans that were either written down to fair value at the acquisition date or are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. The remaining $2.0 million of non-performing loans represent primarily Hanover originated residential credits with a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 63%.
Our SBA and USDA lending has traditionally been to customers, and secured by collateral, located primarily in our metropolitan New York trade area. However, we have now expanded our government guaranteed lending nationally and have hired lending personnel based in the Southeast to support this initiative. Increased government guaranteed lending and our ongoing expansion of C&I lending are expected to diversify our historical focus on loans secured by commercial real estate and residential properties, diversifying our balance sheet and supporting core deposit and revenue growth.
Net Interest Margin
The Bank’s net interest margin was 3.49% during the fourth calendar quarter of 2022 versus 4.39% in the comparable 2021 quarter and 4.04% in the linked 2022 quarter. Excluding the impact of net purchase accounting accretion, the Company’s net interest margin was 3.43% and 3.90% in the quarters ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 3.93% in the linked 2022 quarter. Depending on future Federal Reserve interest rate decisions in early 2023, we expect margin stabilization by mid-2023 coupled with net interest income growth as the year progresses.
Operating Efficiency Ratio
The Bank’s operating efficiency ratio was 49.6% in the fourth calendar quarter of 2022 versus 46.8% a year ago.

Non-GAAP Disclosure
This discussion includes non-GAAP financial measures, including the Company’s adjusted operating earnings, adjusted net interest margin, adjusted returns on average assets and shareholders’ equity, and adjusted operating efficiency ratio. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of historical or future performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are required to be disclosed in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides both management and investors with a greater understanding of the Company’s operating results and trends in addition to the results measured in accordance with GAAP, and provides greater comparability across time periods. While management uses non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance, this information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the numbers prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP or considered to be more important than financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other financial institutions.

| (1) A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are required to be disclosed in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s management believes the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with a greater understanding of the Company’s operating results in addition to the results measured in accordance with U.S. GAAP. While management uses non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance, this information should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP or considered to be more important than financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. |
