Bank of the James Announces Third Quarter, Nine Months of 2020

Financial Results and Declaration of Dividend

Commercial Banking Stability, Active Mortgage Origination, Strong Asset Quality

LYNCHBURG, Va., October 23, 2020 — Bank of the James Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ:BOTJ), the parent company of Bank of the James, a full-service commercial and retail bank serving Region 2000 (the greater Lynchburg MSA), and the Blacksburg, Charlottesville, Harrisonburg, Lexington, and Roanoke, Virginia markets, today announced unaudited results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $1.45 million or $0.34 per diluted share, compared with $1.47 million or $0.34 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $3.27 million or $0.75 per diluted share, compared with $4.09 million or $0.93 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Highlights

•

Net income in the third quarter and nine months of 2020 reflected strong noninterest income. Residential mortgage origination, which generates noninterest income from gains on loan sales to the secondary market, contributed significantly to increased total noninterest income, which was $3.06 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $2.16 million a year earlier. In the nine months of 2020, total noninterest income was $8.04 million, up from $5.04 million a year earlier, reflecting increased gains on sales of available-for-sale securities, residential mortgage origination income, fee income from corporate treasury services and other fees.

•

Net interest income was $6.20 million in the third quarter of 2020, up from with $6.17 million a year earlier, primarily reflecting reduced interest expense which was offset by a modest decline in interest income from commercial lending.

•

Loans receivable, net of the allowance for loan losses, were $616.58 million at September 30, 2020, up 8% from $573.27 million at December 31, 2019. The increase primarily reflects the addition of government-guaranteed Payroll Protection Plan (PPP) loans, relative stability in commercial real estate lending, and continued strength in commercial construction lending.

•

On a consecutive quarter comparison, nonperforming loans declined sharply to $2.54 million at September 30, 2020 from $5.19 million at June 30, 2020, primarily reflecting recovery of a previously reported nonaccrual loan and property sale.

•

Asset quality remained strong at 0.41% of nonperforming loans to total loans. Allowance for loan losses to total loans increased to 1.12% at September 30, 2020 (approximately 1.25% excluding government-guaranteed PPP loans) from 0.84% at December 31, 2019, primarily reflecting reserves related to the impact of COVID-19.

•

Total deposits were $763.9 million at September 30, 2020, up from $746.0 million at June 30, 2020 and $649.5 million at December 31, 2019. The increase reflects increased core deposits (noninterest-bearing demand, NOW, savings and money market accounts) as customers maintained higher balances, attributable in part to PPP loan funds not yet to be deployed, increased deposit relationships, and growth generated by offices opened over the last several years.

•

Total stockholders’ equity was $65.8 million at September 30, 2020 compared with $61.4 million at December 31, 2019. Book value per share rose to $15.16 per share at September 30, 2020.

•

On October 20, 2020 the Company’s board of directors approved a $0.07 per share dividend payable to stockholders of record on November 27, 2020, to be paid on December 11, 2020.

•

In the third quarter of 2020, the Company completed a private placement of unregistered debt securities totaling $10.05 million at a 3.25% interest rate. Of that amount, $5 million was used to retire an earlier private placement carrying a higher rate.

•

Consistent with the previously filed Form 10-Q Quarterly Reports, the Company anticipates expanded disclosure to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission related to business sectors and credit quality covering the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020.

Robert R. Chapman III, President and CEO, commented: “The markets we serve throughout the region have proven resilient despite the challenges and uncertainties presented by the pandemic. Bank of the James has focused on ensuring the health and safety of our customers, our employees and the community while continuing to provide the highest levels of customer service and a personal approach to retail and business banking that has been our hallmark for more than 20 years.

“We have seen the positive impact of making PPP loans to small and medium-sized businesses throughout the region, providing businesses with financial security and the ability to continue operating and supporting their employees. We recognize challenges are still ahead, however, based on our Company’s financial performance and the general economic stability of our served markets, we are cautiously optimistic. The majority of the businesses we serve have been adaptable and shown much grit and determination. We have worked with them to manage their businesses and financial challenges.

“Margins, returns and interest income continue to be impacted by expected business slowdowns and the issuance of low-interest PPP loans. Importantly, the Bank has not experienced any unusual pressure on deposit balances or liquidity positions as a result of COVID-19. We believe the Company’s fundamentals are strong. We have prepared for this period by increasing capital resources, expanding reserves and provisioning for potential loan losses, building cash reserves, and more.

“The Company continued to build value, with increased shareholder equity and increased book value that provided the confidence to declare another quarterly cash dividend to shareholders. The Company’s strong financial performance, prudent provisioning for loan losses, and continued focus on problem-solving and seeking out opportunities support our confidence in the future.”

Third Quarter, Nine Months of 2020 Operational Review

Total interest income was $7.3 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $7.6 million a year earlier and $7.1 million in the second quarter of 2020, primarily reflecting moderate declines in commercial lending and continuing pressure on interest rates. Interest expense was $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $1.4 million a year earlier. The Company trimmed deposit rates slightly in the third quarter of 2020 to reflect the exceptionally low interest rate environment. A larger deposit base and increased core deposits (noninterest bearing demand and interest-bearing demand accounts) contributed to the rate paid on liabilities in the third quarter of 2020 of 0.65% compared with 0.99% a year earlier.

Net interest income after provision for loan losses was $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared with $6.1 million the previous year. The loan loss provision for the third quarter 2020 was $700,000 compared with $108,000 a year earlier. For the nine months of 2020, net interest income after provision for loan losses was $16.0 million compared with $18.0 million a year earlier.

The Company’s provision for loan losses for the nine months of 2020 was $2.3 million compared with $434,000 a year earlier. The increase for the nine months of 2020 primarily reflects increased qualitative allocations related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on economic conditions, loan concentrations in sectors adversely affected by the pandemic, and loans that have been granted payment deferrals or have been granted interest only payment status in the short term.

The average rate earned on loans was 4.37% in the third quarter of 2020, compared with 4.33% in the second quarter of 2020 and 5.0% a year earlier. The net interest margin was 3.10% in the third quarter of 2020 compared with 3.13% in the second quarter of 2020 and 3.75% in the third quarter of 2019.

J. Todd Scruggs, Executive Vice President and CFO, commented: “As anticipated, continuing pressure on interest rates, and the addition of low-interest PPP loans had a negative impact on rates earned, and carrying additional contingent liquidity in the form of Fed funds, contributed to net interest margin compression. Since the rate cuts in the spring, we have been encouraged by the relative stability of rates and margins.

“We did not receive any PPP forgiveness payments in the third quarter of 2020, so while some PPP fees were accreted into interest income, the fees did not offset a decline in loan yields. Since the end of the third quarter, a small number of PPP loans have been repaid and we anticipate additional PPP forgiveness payments occurring in the fourth quarter of 2020, which should have a mitigating effect on the margin. Our focus continues to be on monitoring credit quality and maintaining a fair rate structure.”

For the nine months of 2020, total interest income was $21.9 million compared with $22.2 million in the nine months of 2019. Total interest expense was $3.7 million in the nine months of 2020 compared with $3.8 million a year earlier. For the nine months of 2020, net interest income after the provision for loan losses was $15.9 million compared with $18.0 million a year earlier, primarily reflecting slower commercial loan activity and an increased loan loss provision. The net interest margin was 3.27% for the nine months of 2020 compared with 3.83% a year earlier.

Noninterest income, including gains from the sale of residential mortgages to the secondary market, revenue contributions from BOTJ Investment Services, and income from the Bank’s line of treasury management services for commercial customers was $3.1 million in the third quarter of 2020, up from $2.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. The Company recorded $2.5 million in gains from the sale of loans held for sale in the third quarter of 2020, up from $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2019.

Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased compared with the previous year, primarily reflecting increased personnel expenses that included performance-based compensation for residential mortgage production which was offset by lower personnel costs related to an early retirement program. For the nine months of 2020, noninterest expense included approximately $750,000 in one-time costs related to the early retirement program. The Company also authorized additional employee compensation of approximately $245,000 in the second quarter of 2020 related to PPP loan originations.

The recognition of the origination fees and costs related to the PPP loans will be accelerated and recognized upon forgiveness or repayment of the PPP loans.

In the third quarter of 2020, Return on Average Assets (ROAA) was 0.68% compared with 0.83% a year earlier, primarily reflecting asset growth and a higher loan loss provision. Return on Average Equity (ROAE) was 9.26% compared with 9.84% a year earlier. The Company’s efficiency ratio improved to 72.77% in the third quarter of 2020 from 76.54% in the prior year, reflecting the impact of the early retirement program and a companywide focus on operating expense management.

Balance Sheet Review: Asset Quality, Prudent Reserves, Liquidity

Total assets were $849.1 million at September 30, 2020 compared with $725.4 million at December 31, 2019. Asset growth primarily reflected increased loans, net of allowance for loan losses, increased loans held for sale related to the Company’s mortgage originations, higher cash reserves and an increase in the securities available-for-sale portfolio. The Company has maintained higher levels of cash and liquid assets consistent with economic conditions and the potential impact of COVID-19 on customers.

Loans, net of allowance for loan losses of $7.0 million, were $616.60 million at September 30, 2020 compared with loans, net of allowance for loan losses of $4.8 million, of $573.27 million at December 31, 2019. The addition of $68 million in PPP loans contributed to loan growth. Commercial lending has been relatively stable in 2020 and the Company has approved and closed new loans, but not at a pace to offset payoffs and normal amortization. The Company has increased the allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL) throughout 2020 to reflect the Company’s ongoing consideration of the pandemic in the development of the allowance estimate.

“Businesses in our served markets have generally demonstrated resilience as they navigate the economic challenges presented by COVID-19,” Chapman explained. “Although commercial loan growth has understandably slowed as businesses take appropriately cautious approaches, there has been stability and credit quality among customers.

“We are diligently monitoring credit quality, measuring exposure to business sectors with particular exposure to the impact of COVID-19, and working closely with customers to help manage working and growth capital requirements. We have continued to make loans and find opportunities to build relationships through lending, deposit and electronic treasury services that provide convenience and efficiency while supporting safe remote operations.”

Residential mortgage origination continued strong activity, generating noninterest income from origination fees and the sale of mortgages to the secondary market. Retained residential mortgages were $48.5 million at September 30, 2020 compared with $55.8 million a year earlier.

Total commercial loans were $174.8 million at September 30, 2020 compared with $102.2 million at September 30, 2019, with the addition of approximately $68 million in PPP loans accounting for a significant portion of the increase. Total owner occupied and non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans declined slightly year-over-year. Commercial construction loans were $21.6 million at September 30, 2020, up 29% from a year earlier. The Company noted that commercial construction has been active throughout the year.

Asset quality has remained strong, with a ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans of 0.41% at September 30, 2020. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was increased to 1.12% (approximately 1.25%, excluding guaranteed PPP loans) at September 30, 2020 from 0.98% at June 30, 2020. Total nonperforming loans in the third quarter of 2020 declined compared with the second quarter of 2020, and the Company’s allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans increased to 274% at September 30, 2020, reflecting current economic uncertainties.

Total deposits at September 30, 2020 were $763.93, compared with $649.46 at December 31, 2019, and up from $746.00 million at June 30, 2020. Increased demand deposits accounted for the growth, in part due to the retention of PPP funds not yet deployed by businesses. Core deposits (noninterest bearing demand, NOW, money market and savings) have increased steadily and were 78% of total deposits at September 30, 2020.

The Company continued to build measures of shareholder value, with total stockholders’ equity of $65.8 million at September 30, 2020, up from $61.4 million at December 31, 2019 and retained earnings of $23.3 million compared with $20.9 million in the same periods respectively. Book value per share rose to $15.16 from $14.10 at December 31, 2019.

Chapman concluded: “We are moving forward with continued vigilance with regard to maintaining credit quality, liquidity and capital strength. During these uncertain times, the Company continued to build value for shareholders and pay a cash dividend. We continue to focus on protecting the health and safety of employees and customers while effectively conducting business. Lastly, we continue to be grateful for the service to our region and country by the healthcare professionals, first-responders, and essential workers.”
