 and $7.4 Million for Fiscal 2017;
Completes Transaction with MBank, Total Assets Surpass $1 Billion

Vancouver, WA – April 27, 2017 - Riverview Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq GSM: RVSB) ("Riverview" or the "Company") today reported earnings increased to $2.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the fourth fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $1.4 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the fourth fiscal quarter one year ago. In fiscal 2017, net income increased to $7.4 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, compared to $6.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, in fiscal 2016.

Fourth Quarter Highlights (at or for the period ended March 31, 2017)

·	On February 17, 2017, completed the purchase and assumption transaction with MBank.

·	Net income increased 44.8% to $2.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to the same period in 2016.

·	Net interest margin grew by 30 basis points to 3.97%.

·	Total loans increased to $779.4 million at March 31, 2017.

·	New loan originations were $67.5 million during the fourth fiscal quarter.

·	Non-performing assets were 0.27% of total assets.

·	Total deposits increased to $980.1 million at March 31, 2017.

·	Total risk-based capital ratio was 14.06% and Tier 1 leverage ratio was 10.21%.

"We finished our fiscal year with solid revenue generation, an expanding net interest margin and steady loan growth," stated Pat Sheaffer, chairman and chief executive officer. "The highlight of the quarter was the closing of our purchase and assumption agreement with MBank. This transaction provides a unique opportunity to expand our market presence in Oregon and broaden our branch network to better serve our new and existing customers. The integration of the two companies is going smoothly, and we anticipate substantial EPS accretion in the first full year."

Due to the timing of the transaction closing, there was only a partial period of operating results included in the current quarter. Transaction-related expenses totaled $452,000, or $0.01 per diluted share after taxes, during the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

"We expect to see continued improvements in our operating ratios, including EPS and efficiency, as we realize the expected cost savings, efficiencies and revenue growth from this transaction," continued Sheaffer.

Net interest income increased $1.9 million to $9.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared to $7.4 million in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. Net interest income increased $4.6 million to $33.8 million for fiscal year 2017 compared to $29.2 million in fiscal year 2016. The growth in net interest income was due to the increase in the Company's interest-earning assets and the purchase of MBank assets.

Riverview's net interest margin increased 30 basis points to 3.97% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared to 3.67% in the same period in 2016 and increased 22 basis points compared to 3.75% in the linked-quarter ended December 31, 2016. The increase in the net interest margin was partially due to the accretion of loan fair value marks from the MBank purchased loans. During the March 31, 2017 quarter, accretion income totaled $250,000 and added 11

 

basis points to the net interest margin. Accretion income was higher than expected this quarter due to several large payoffs of MBank purchased loans subsequent to closing.

"Our net interest margin before the accretion income also increased 11 basis points compared to the preceding quarter and expanded 19 basis points compared to a year ago," said Kevin Lycklama, executive vice president and chief financial officer. "The increase in our core net interest margin was primarily due to the growth in our loan and investment portfolios along with the addition of the MBank assets."

Non-interest income increased to $2.6 million in the fourth fiscal quarter compared to $2.3 million in the preceding quarter and to $2.2 million in the fourth quarter a year ago.

Asset management fees were $730,000 during the fourth fiscal quarter compared to $709,000 in the preceding quarter and $757,000 in the same quarter a year ago. Riverview Trust Company's ("RTC") assets under management increased to $425.9 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $389.1 million a year earlier. During the March quarter, RTC opened a second office in the Portland suburb of Lake Oswego. This new location will allow RTC to expand its footprint and product offerings in the Portland market.

Non-interest expense increased to $8.9 million during the fourth fiscal quarter compared to $7.9 million in the preceding quarter. The increase in non-interest expenses was primarily due to the addition of the operating expenses of MBank as well as the transaction-related expenses. The Company expects the remaining merger related expenses to be recognized by the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2018. For the full year, non-interest expense increased to $33.0 million compared to $29.9 million in fiscal 2016.

"The loan portfolio benefitted from both the new loans acquired from MBank, as well as solid organic loan growth during the quarter," said Ron Wysaske, president and chief operating officer. "Loan growth remains steady, with originations totaling $67.5 million during the quarter."

Total loans increased $115.1 million during the quarter to $779.4 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $664.3 million at December 31, 2016 due primarily to the MBank purchase. Excluding the loans acquired from MBank, total loans increased $11.1 million, or 6.8% annualized, during the quarter ended March 31, 2017. Total loans have grown $154.6 million, or 24.7%, during the past fiscal year.

The commercial loan pipeline totaled $52.5 million at the end of the quarter. Undisbursed construction loans totaled $47.3 million at March 31, 2017, with the majority of the undisbursed construction loans expected to fund during the next few quarters.

Total deposits increased $139.7 million during the quarter to $980.1 million at March 31, 2017 due primarily to the MBank purchase. Excluding the deposits assumed from MBank, total deposits increased $6.1 million, or 2.9% annualized, during the quarter ended March 31, 2017. Total deposits have increased $200.3 million, or 25.7%, during fiscal year 2017. Checking account balances represented 42.2% of total deposits compared to 41.5% a year ago.

Shareholders' equity was $111.3 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $109.4 million three months earlier and $108.3 million a year ago. Tangible book value per share was $3.68 at March 31, 2017 compared to $3.72 at December 31, 2016 and $3.67 at March 31, 2016. A quarterly cash dividend of $0.02 per share was paid on April 25, 2017.

"The credit quality of our loan portfolio remains strong," added Lycklama. "Following the addition of the MBank loan portfolio, classified assets totaled $10.3 million compared to $4.3 million at December 31, 2016. At March 31, 2017, the classified asset to total capital ratio was 9.1% compared to 3.8% three months earlier."

Non-performing loans were $2.7 million, or 0.35% of total loans, at March 31, 2017 compared to $2.8 million, or 0.42% of total loans, three months earlier. REO balances were $298,000 at March 31, 2017, which were unchanged compared to the preceding quarter.  There were no additions to REO during the quarter.

 

 

 

The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2017 totaled $10.5 million, representing 1.35% of total loans, compared to 1.55% of total loans at December 31, 2016. The decrease in the allowance to total loans was a result of recording the MBank purchased loans at their fair value, which includes all the credit risk adjustments. Management considers the allowance for loan losses to be adequate at March 31, 2017 to cover probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Net loan recoveries were $239,000 during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2017 compared to $226,000 in the preceding quarter.

Riverview continues to maintain capital levels well in excess of the regulatory requirements to be categorized as "well capitalized" with a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.06%, Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.21% and tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio of 7.49% at March 31, 2017.

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Riverview believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information useful in understanding the Company's financial performance; however, readers of this report are urged to review these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP results as reported.

Financial measures that exclude intangible assets are non-GAAP measures. To provide investors with a broader understanding of capital adequacy, Riverview provides non-GAAP financial measures for tangible common equity, along with the GAAP measure. Tangible common equity is calculated as shareholders' equity less goodwill and other intangible assets. In addition, tangible assets are total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets.

The following table provides a reconciliation of ending shareholders' equity (GAAP) to ending tangible shareholders' equity (non-GAAP), and ending total assets (GAAP) to ending tangible assets (non-GAAP).
