    Tom Cherry, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F Financial Corporation, commented, “We are pleased with our solid earnings for the third quarter, along with sustained loan growth at the community banking segment. While higher interest rates continue to hinder originations at the mortgage banking segment and increase borrowing costs at the consumer finance segment, earnings at the community banking segment continue to grow, demonstrating the value of our diversified business strategy. Asset quality remains strong, although we are monitoring economic conditions and their impact on our borrowers’ financial positions.”

    Key highlights for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023 are as follows.

    • Community banking segment loans grew $86.1 million, or 9.9 percent annualized, and $151.2 million, or 13.8 percent, compared to December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively;
    • Consumer finance segment loans decreased $3.4 million, or 1.0 percent annualized, and increased $5.5 million, or 1.2 percent, compared to December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively;
    • Deposits increased $24.6 million, or 1.6 percent annualized, and $8.7 million, or less than 1 percent, compared to December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively;
    • The community banking segment recorded provision for credit losses of $500,000 for the third quarter of 2023 and recorded no provision for credit losses for the third quarter of 2022. For the first nine months of 2023, the community banking segment recorded provision for credit losses of $1.6 million and recorded net reversals of provision for credit losses of $700,000 for the first nine months of 2022;
    • The consumer finance segment recorded provision for credit losses of $1.6 million and $1.2 million for the third quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively and recorded provision for credit losses of $4.3 million and $2.1 million for the first nine months of 2023 and 2022, respectively;
    • Consolidated annualized net interest margin was 4.29 percent for the third quarter of 2023 compared to 4.37 percent for the third quarter of 2022, and unchanged from 4.29 percent in the second quarter of 2023;
    • The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 1.75 percent of average total loans for the first nine months of 2023, compared to net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 0.19 percent of average total loans for the first nine months of 2022; and
    • Mortgage banking segment loan originations decreased $25.4 million, or 16.4 percent, and $54.6 million, or 29.6 percent, for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2023 and third quarter of 2022, respectively.

    Community Banking Segment.   The community banking segment reported net income of $5.7 million and $17.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively, compared to $5.4 million and $13.8 million, respectively for the same periods in 2022, resulting in an increase of $264,000 and $3.9 million, respectively, due primarily to:

    • higher interest income resulting from the effects of rising interest rates on asset yields, including on variable rate loans to the consumer finance segment, and higher average balances of loans;
      partially offset by:
    • higher interest expense due primarily to higher rates on deposits and higher borrowing balances;
    • provision for credit losses of $500,000 and $1.6 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively, compared to no provision for credit losses and a net reversal of provision for credit losses of $700,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively;
    • higher salaries and employee benefits expense, which have generally increased in line with employment market conditions; and
    • higher Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) assessment expenses, due primarily to statutory increases applicable to all insured depository institutions.

    Average loans increased $141.8 million, or 13.1 percent, for the third quarter of 2023 and increased $144.7 million, or 13.7 percent, for the first nine months of 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022, primarily from growth in the commercial real estate and residential mortgage segments of the loan portfolio. Average deposits decreased $9.0 million, or less than one percent, for the third quarter of 2023 and increased $6.8 million, or less than one percent, for the first nine months of 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022. Although average deposits have remained relatively flat compared to prior periods, there has been a shift in the mix with noninterest-bearing, money market and savings accounts decreasing while time deposits are increasing. Average deposits increased $16.8 million, or less than one percent, for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2023.

    Average loan yields and average costs of interest-bearing deposits were higher for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023 compared to the same periods of 2022, due primarily to the effects of rising interest rates as market interest rates rose in 2022 and the first nine months of 2023. While the community banking segment expects loan yields to continue to rise, costs of deposits are expected to increase faster as time deposits reprice and therefore net interest margin is anticipated to decline in the fourth quarter of 2023.

    The community banking segment’s nonaccrual loans were $465,000 at September 30, 2023 compared to $115,000 at December 31, 2022.   The community banking segment recorded provision for credit losses of $500,000 and $1.6 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively, compared to no provision for credit losses and a net reversal of provision for credit losses of $700,000, respectively, for the same periods in 2022. The increases are due primarily to growth in the loan portfolio, an increase in unfunded commitments, and the resolution of certain impaired loans in 2022, which resulted in the reversal of specific reserves with no losses being realized. At September 30, 2023, the allowance for credit losses increased to $15.9 million, compared to $14.5 million at December 31, 2022, due primarily to growth in the loan portfolio and the adoption of the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) model, which resulted in an implementation adjustment on January 1, 2023 of $85,000. Management believes that the level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate to reflect the net amount expected to be collected.

    Mortgage Banking Segment. The mortgage banking segment reported net loss of $5,000 and net income of $568,000 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively, compared to net income of $24,000 and $1.7 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2022, resulting in a decrease of $29,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, due primarily to:

    • lower volume of mortgage loan originations; and
    • lower reversal of provision for indemnifications for the first nine months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022;
      partially offset by:
    • lower expenses tied to mortgage loan origination volume such as salaries and employee benefits, loan processing, and data processing; and
    • reversal of provision for indemnifications for the third quarter of 2023 compared to provision for indemnification expense in the third quarter of 2022.

    The rapid rise in mortgage interest rates during 2022 and 2023, combined with higher home prices and lower levels of inventory, has led to a substantial decline in mortgage loan originations for the mortgage industry during 2023 as compared to 2022.   Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment were $129.7 million and $400.6 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively, compared to $184.3 million and $585.3 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2022. Mortgage loan originations during the third quarter of 2023 for refinancings and home purchases were $11.9 million and $117.8 million, respectively, compared to $18.3 million and $166.0 million, respectively, during the third quarter of 2022. Mortgage loan originations during the first nine months of 2023 for refinancings and home purchases were $40.2 million and $360.4 million, respectively, compared to $92.1 million and $493.2 million, respectively, during the first nine months of 2022.   Mortgage loan originations in the third quarter of 2023 decreased $25.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2023 due to industry seasonality trends and the current mortgage interest rate environment.

    During the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, the mortgage banking segment recorded a reversal of provision for indemnification losses of $200,000 and $435,000, respectively, compared to a provision for indemnification losses of $11,000 and a reversal of provision for indemnification losses of $858,000, respectively, in the same periods of 2022. The release of indemnification reserves in 2022 and 2023 was due primarily to improvement in the mortgage banking segment’s assessment of borrower payment performance and other factors affecting expected losses on mortgage loans sold in the secondary market. Management believes that the indemnification reserve is sufficient to absorb losses related to loans that have been sold in the secondary market.

    Consumer Finance Segment. The consumer finance segment reported net income of $682,000 and $2.3 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively, compared to net income of $1.8 million and $6.0 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2022, resulting in a decrease of $1.1 million and $3.7 million, respectively, due primarily to:

    • higher interest expense due primarily to increased costs on variable rate borrowings from the community banking segment as market interest rates have increased; and
    • higher provision for credit losses as a result of increased net charge-offs and loan growth;
      partially offset by:
    • higher interest income resulting from higher average balances of interest-earning assets and the effects of rising market interest rates.

    Average loans increased $19.4 million, or 4.3 percent, for the third quarter of 2023 and increased $57.1 million, or 13.7 percent, for the first nine months of 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022. The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 1.75 percent of average total loans for the first nine months of 2023, compared to annualized net charge-offs of 0.19 percent for the first nine months of 2022, due primarily to an increase in the number of delinquent loans following a period of historically low delinquencies during the COVID-19 pandemic, a decline in wholesale values of used automobiles from a peak during the COVID-19 pandemic and challenges in repossessing automobiles due to a decline in the number of repossession agencies, which results in a fully charged-off loan when an automobile cannot be repossessed. At September 30, 2023, total delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans was 3.30 percent, compared to 2.78 percent at December 31, 2022 and 2.31 percent at September 30, 2022. Although delinquent loans are increasing compared to prior periods, 2022 was lower due to the effects of government stimulus measures in response to the pandemic that benefitted borrowers. The allowance for credit losses was $24.4 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $26.0 million at December 31, 2022. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans decreased to 5.18 percent at September 30, 2023 from 5.47 percent and 5.64 percent at December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively, primarily as a result of growth in loans with stronger credit quality while balances of loans with lower credit quality declined, partially offset by the adoption of CECL, which resulted in an implementation adjustment on January 1, 2023 of $406,000. Management believes that the level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate to reflect the net amount expected to be collected. If loan performance deteriorates resulting in continued elevated delinquencies or net charge-offs, the provision for credit losses may increase in future periods.

    Liquidity. The objective of the Corporation’s liquidity management is to ensure the continuous availability of funds to satisfy the credit needs of our customers and the demands of our depositors, creditors and investors. Uninsured deposits represent an estimate of amounts above the FDIC insurance coverage limit of $250,000. As of September 30, 2023, the Corporation’s uninsured deposits, excluding intercompany cash holdings and municipal deposits which are secured with pledged securities, were $409.1 million, or 20.2 percent of total deposits. The Corporation’s liquid assets, which include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits at other banks and nonpledged securities available for sale, were $340.7 million and borrowing availability was $560.8 million as of September 30, 2023, exceeding uninsured deposits, excluding intercompany cash holdings and secured municipal deposits, by $492.4 million as of September 30, 2023.

    In addition to deposits, the Corporation utilizes short-term and long-term borrowings as sources of funds. Short-term borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank and the FHLB may be used to fund the Corporation’s day-to-day operations. Short-term borrowings also include securities sold under agreements to repurchase. Borrowings increased to $147.0 million at September 30, 2023 from $92.1 million at December 31, 2022 and $93.2 million at September 30, 2022, due primarily to higher short-term borrowings from the FHLB. Borrowings decreased $28.6 million from $175.6 million at June 30, 2023.

    Additional sources of liquidity available to the Corporation include cash flows from operations, loan payments and payoffs, deposit growth, maturities, calls and sales of securities and the issuance of brokered certificates of deposit.

    Capital and Dividends. The Corporation declared a quarterly cash dividend of 44 cents per share during the third quarter of 2023, which was paid on October 1, 2023. This dividend represents a payout ratio of 25.7 percent of earnings per share for the third quarter of 2023. 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.

    Total consolidated equity increased $4.1 million at September 30, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022, due primarily to net income, partially offset by share repurchases, higher unrealized losses in the market value of securities available for sale, which are recognized as a component of other comprehensive loss, dividends paid on the Corporation’s common stock, and the Corporation’s adoption of the CECL methodology for estimating credit losses, which resulted in a decrease to opening retained earnings of $1.1 million. The Corporation’s securities available for sale are fixed income debt securities, and their unrealized loss position is a result of rising market interest rates since they were purchased. The Corporation expects to recover its investments in debt securities through scheduled payments of principal and interest, and unrealized losses are not expected to affect the earnings or regulatory capital of the Corporation or C&F Bank. The accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the Corporation’s securities available for sale increased to $39.5 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $35.2 million at December 31, 2022, as a result of an increase in market interest rates.

    As of September 30, 2023, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the C&F Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized under regulations applicable at September 30, 2023, C&F Bank was required to maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, CET1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios. In addition to the regulatory risk-based capital requirements, C&F Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer of additional capital of 2.5 percent of risk-weighted assets as required by the Basel III capital rules. The Corporation and C&F Bank exceeded these ratios at September 30, 2023. For additional information, see “Capital Ratios” below. The above mentioned ratios are not impacted by unrealized losses on securities available for sale. In the event that all of these unrealized losses became realized into earnings, the Corporation and C&F Bank would both continue to exceed minimum capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffer, and be considered well capitalized.

    In November 2022, the Board of Directors authorized a program, effective December 1, 2022, to repurchase up to $10.0 million of the Corporation’s common stock through December 31, 2023. During the third quarter of 2023, the Corporation repurchased 23,856 shares, or $1.3 million, of its common stock under this share repurchase program.

    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 return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE), 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 balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and 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.
