    The Corporation uses non-GAAP measures of financial performance, including adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted annualized return on average assets (ROA) and adjusted annualized return on average equity (ROE), to provide meaningful information about operating performance by excluding the effects of certain items that management does not expect to have an ongoing impact on consolidated net income. Adjusted net income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 and 2020 exclude the effects of merger related expenses, branch consolidation charges and certain one-time tax benefits. For more information about these financial measures, which are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), please see “Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” below.

    Key highlights for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 are as follows. Comparisons are to the corresponding periods in the prior year unless otherwise stated.

    • Average loans outstanding at the community banking segment, excluding Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, increased 5.7 percent for the third quarter and 3.9 percent for the first nine months;
    • Average loans outstanding at the consumer finance segment increased 10.0 percent for the third quarter and 6.4 percent for the first nine months;
    • Interest expense decreased $991,000 for the third quarter of 2021 and $4.0 million for the first nine months of 2021 due primarily to lower rates on time deposits and a shift in funding to lower cost deposits;
    • The community banking segment recognized net origination fees related to PPP loans of $1.3 million and $3.4 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, primarily as a result of PPP loans that were forgiven or repaid, compared to $455,000 and $832,000, respectively;
    • The Corporation recorded provision for loan losses of $430,000 and $110,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 on a consolidated basis. This represents a decrease in the provision for loan losses of $2.9 million and $9.4 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, as a result of recoveries exceeding charge-offs at the consumer finance segment and decreases to the allowance for loan losses at the community banking segment and consumer finance segment as a result of strong asset quality, partially offset by loan growth. During the first nine months of 2021, the consumer finance segment and community banking segment released a portion of the reserves recognized during 2020, as credit deterioration since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic has so far not been experienced to the extent previously anticipated;
    • Consolidated annualized net interest margin was 4.25 percent for the third quarter of 2021, compared to 4.54 percent and 4.37 percent for the third quarter of 2020 and second quarter of 2021, respectively, and was 4.31 percent for the first nine months of 2021, compared to 4.68 percent for the first nine months of 2020. The decrease in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2021 was due primarily to loan growth at the consumer finance segment being outpaced by lower-yielding cash generated from repayments and sales of PPP and mortgage loans, respectively, as well as lower average loan yields, especially at the consumer finance segment, partially offset by lower cost of deposits;
    • Mortgage banking segment net income decreased 53 percent for the third quarter of 2021 and decreased 20 percent for the first nine months of 2021, respectively, as mortgage loan originations decreased 33 percent for the third quarter of 2021 and decreased 7 percent for the first nine months of 2021 as compared to the record loan production experienced in 2020;
    • The consumer finance segment experienced net recoveries at an annualized rate of 0.08 percent of average total loans for the first nine months of 2021, compared to net charge-offs of 1.56 percent for the first nine months of 2020, due to borrowers generally benefitting from government stimulus measures related to the COVID-19 pandemic, continued improvement in the credit quality of purchased loans and elevated values for used autos, which result in lower charge-offs upon sale of repossessed autos; and
    • The consumer finance segment’s average loan yield declined due to continued competition for non-prime auto loans and growth in higher quality, lower-yielding loans, including marine and recreational vehicle loans.

    Tom Cherry, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F Financial Corporation, commented, “In the third quarter, we have continued to grow non-PPP loans at the community banking segment and consumer finance segment, and have maintained historically high levels of loan originations at the mortgage banking segment, although lower than in 2020. This continued success, together with strong asset quality, fee income from PPP loans as they become forgiven, lower cost of funds and continued growth in core deposits resulted in an exceptional third quarter for C&F. We continue to see encouraging signs in the economies in our markets, although we remain watchful of the progress of the economic recovery and its effects on our customers and communities. While we believe that mortgage loan originations will continue to decline relative to the record origination levels experienced last year and net interest margin compression remains a challenge, we are pleased with these results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 and remain optimistic about future earnings as a result of our diversified business strategy.”

    Community Banking Segment.   The community banking segment reported net income of $4.2 million and $10.9 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, compared to $1.3 million and $2.3 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2020. Net income increased $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $8.6 million for the first nine months of 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, due primarily to higher adjusted net income, as described below, merger related expenses and branch consolidation charges recognized in 2020, and income tax benefits recognized in 2021 as a result of branch consolidation activities, partially offset by benefits of a change in tax law recognized in 2020.

    Adjusted net income for the community banking segment, which excludes the effects of merger related expenses, branch consolidation charges and one-time income tax benefits, was $4.1 million and $10.8 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, compared to $1.3 million and $3.2 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2020. The increases in adjusted net income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 were due primarily to (1) lower provision for loan losses, resulting from reserves recognized in 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic, a portion of which were released in the first nine months of 2021, and improvement in impaired loans, partially offset by loan growth, (2) lower cost of deposits, (3) higher interest income on loans, due primarily to recognition of net origination fees on PPP loans and loan growth and (4) higher income from debit card interchange, overdraft and account maintenance fees. In addition to these factors that affected comparisons for the third quarter and first nine months, adjusted net income for the first nine months of 2021 also included the sale of an other real estate owned (OREO) property in the first nine months of 2021, which resulted in a gain of $399,000, which was partially offset by higher occupancy expense related to the opening of two financial centers in the third quarter of 2020.

    Average loans increased $11.7 million, or 1.1 percent, for the third quarter of 2021 and $58.4 million, or 6.0 percent, for the first nine months of 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020. Excluding the impact of PPP loans, average loans increased $53.1 million, or 5.7 percent, for the third quarter of 2021 and $36.3 million, or 3.9 percent, for the first nine months of 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase in average loans outstanding excluding PPP loans for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 resulted primarily from growth in the commercial real estate segment of the loan portfolio. Average deposits increased $183.0 million, or 11.0 percent, for the third quarter of 2021 and $248.3 million, or 15.8 percent, for the first nine months of 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, and the mix of deposit balances shifted away from time deposits and toward lower cost savings, money market and demand deposits.

    Average loan yields were higher for the third quarter of 2021 and lower for the first nine months of 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. Interest rates declined in 2020, resulting in lower repricing of variable rate loans and lower average yields on new lending, while recognition of net origination fees on PPP loans was higher for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 as a result of PPP loans that were forgiven or repaid. PPP loans earn interest at a note rate of one percent as well as net origination fees that are amortized over the contractual term of the related loan or accelerated into interest income upon repayment of the loan. Net PPP origination fees recognized in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 were $1.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively, compared to $455,000 and $832,000, respectively, for the same periods in 2020. Since the second quarter of 2020, the community banking segment has recognized $4.9 million of net fees under the PPP, and there were unrecognized net deferred PPP fees at September 30, 2021 of $1.4 million, which are expected to be recognized in 2021 and 2022.

    C&F Bank’s total nonperforming assets were $3.4 million at September 30, 2021 compared to $3.9 million at December 31, 2020. Nonperforming assets included $2.6 million in nonaccrual loans and $857,000 in OREO at September 30, 2021 and included $3.0 million in nonaccrual loans and $907,000 in OREO at December 31, 2020. Nonaccrual loans were comprised primarily of one commercial relationship at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The community banking segment recorded no provision for loan losses for the third quarter 2021 and recorded a net reversal of provision for loan losses of $200,000 for the first nine months of 2021, compared to provision for loan losses of $1.5 million and $3.9 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020, there have not been significant changes in the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio. Management believes that PPP loans and other forms of government stimulus may have delayed and partially mitigated credit deterioration during the COVID-19 pandemic. At September 30, 2021, the allowance for loan losses decreased to $14.8 million, compared to $15.0 million at December 31, 2020. Management believes that the level of the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. However, if there are further challenges to the economic recovery, including a resurgence in COVID-19 cases or challenges related to continuing supply chain disruption and lower overall employment, additional provision for loan losses may be required in future periods.

    Mortgage Banking Segment.   The mortgage banking segment reported net income of $2.1 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to net income of $4.5 million for the third quarter of 2020. For the first nine months of 2021, the mortgage banking segment reported net income of $6.6 million, compared to net income of $8.3 million for the first nine months of 2020.

    The decrease in net income of the mortgage banking segment for the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020 was due primarily to lower mortgage origination volume, partially offset by higher margins on loans originated for resale. The decrease in net income of the mortgage banking segment for the first nine months of 2021 compared to the first nine months of 2020 was due primarily to lower mortgage origination volume, increased salaries and benefits expense as a result of higher average rates of loan officer commissions and due to the addition of operations staff to meet the demands of higher mortgage loan production, partially offset by higher margins on loans originated for resale and higher lender services volume.

    Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment were $358.3 million and $1.16 billion for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, compared to $534.7 million and $1.24 billion for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively. Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment during the third quarter of 2021 for refinancings and home purchases were $95.0 million and $263.3 million, respectively, compared to $285.3 million and $249.4 million, respectively, during the third quarter of 2020.   Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment during the first nine months of 2021 for refinancings and home purchases were $438.5 million and $723.6 million, respectively, compared to $625.4 million and $618.0 million, respectively, during the first nine months of 2020.  

    Consumer Finance Segment.   The consumer finance segment reported net income of $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to net income of $1.6 million for the third quarter of 2020. For the first nine months of 2021, the consumer finance segment reported net income of $7.6 million, compared to net income of $5.2 million for the first nine months of 2020.

    The increase in net income of the consumer finance segment for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 was due primarily to lower provision for loan losses, partially offset by lower interest income. Provision for loan losses decreased as a result of reserves recognized in 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic, a portion of which were released in the first nine months of 2021, and lower net charge-offs, partially offset by loan growth in 2021. Interest income was lower for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 as a result of lower average yields on loans, resulting from lower market interest rates and continued competition in the non-prime automobile loan business as well as the consumer finance segment’s pursuing growth in higher quality, lower yielding loans, partially offset by loan growth.

    The consumer finance segment experienced annualized net recoveries for the first nine months of 2021 of 0.08 percent of average total loans, compared to net charge-offs of 1.56 percent for the first nine months of 2020. The decline in the net charge-off ratio for the first nine months of 2021 compared to the first nine months of 2020 reflects a lower number of charge-offs during 2021 due to improvement in loan performance, and lower losses per loan charged off as a result of a strong used car market. Improvement in loan performance has resulted from the consumer finance segment continuing to purchase higher quality loans as well as borrowers benefitting from the government’s stimulus measures in response to the pandemic.   At September 30, 2021, total delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans was 1.92 percent, compared to 3.08 percent at December 31, 2020 and 2.48 percent at September 30, 2020. The allowance for loan losses was $23.9 million at September 30, 2021, compared to $23.5 million at December 31, 2020. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans decreased to 6.85 percent at September 30, 2021 from 7.53 percent at December 31, 2020 primarily a result of improving credit quality of the portfolio, which has resulted in lower net charge-offs, and lower reserves based on qualitative adjustments related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Management believes that the level of the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. However, if there are further challenges to the economic recovery, including a resurgence in COVID-19 cases or challenges related to continuing supply chain disruption and lower overall employment, additional provision for loan losses may be required in future periods.

    Capital and Dividends. The Corporation declared a quarterly cash dividend of 40 cents per share during the third quarter of 2021. This dividend, paid to shareholders on October 1, 2021, represents a payout ratio of 18.5 percent of earnings per share for the third quarter of 2021. The Board of Directors of the Corporation continually reviews the amount of cash dividends per share and the resulting dividend payout ratio in light of changes in economic conditions, current and future capital requirements, and expected future earnings.

    Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to GAAP in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Corporation’s performance. These include adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted ROE, adjusted ROA, tangible book value per share, and the following fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) measures: interest income on loans-FTE, interest income on securities-FTE, total interest income-FTE and net interest income-FTE.

    Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of (1) items that do not reflect ongoing operating performance, including non-recurring gains or charges, (2) balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and (3) tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP-basis financial statements, and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation to evaluate and measure the Corporation’s performance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below.
