·The efficiency ratio was 57.44%, an improvement from 60.64% in the prior quarter and 72.76% in the same quarter in 2020.

 

JB Schwiers, the Company’s President, said, “Our team at GrandSouth has worked hard over the last eighteen months through some of the most challenging times in the nation’s history. These quarterly results show what this team can produce. I am most proud of having a $909 million loan portfolio with only one loan past due over 30 days, a non-performing asset ratio of 0.18%, and ending the second quarter in a net recovery position regarding losses. This level of performance does not happen by chance. It comes from an unwavering culture of not sacrificing credit quality for the sake of growth. I also think it is important to note that our net interest margin improved comparing the second quarter of 2021 to 2020. Earning asset yields did drop by 26 basis points but we were able to overcome that drop with a 56 basis point decline in our cost of funds. It was a collective focus on improving our net interest margin and expense control that led to these wonderful earnings and efficiency results.”

 

COVID-19 Impact through June 30, 2021

Management continues to focus on the economic impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. To assist small businesses in need, in 2020, the Bank processed 272 Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans for a total of $39.0 million in loans funded and $1.6 million in lender fees collected. As of June 30, 2021, 264 of these loans totaling $37.6 million have been forgiven and lender fee income totaling $1.4 million had been recognized. In 2021, the Bank has processed 95 PPP loans for a total of $12.0 million loans funded and $0.6 million in lender fees collected. As of June 30, 2021, six of these loans totaling $0.4 million have been forgiven and lender fee income totaling $57.3 thousand had been recognized.

In 2020, payment deferrals were granted on $108.4 million, or 15.5%, of Core Bank loans, and $7.6 million of specialty floor plan loans. All deferred loans had resumed payments or had been paid off prior to the end of 2020.

 

Specialty floor plan loans finished the quarter ended June 30, 2021 at $87.5 million, up from $60.1 million at June 30, 2020. The average balance of such loans outstanding for the quarters ending June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $82.8 million and $69.7 million, respectively. During 2020, the specialty floor plan lending division was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic as most automobile auctions throughout the country ceased in-person sales allowing online only, and various government regulations restricted the ability of businesses to operate. As a result, the volume of vehicles financed within the division decreased. This trend resulted in an outstanding balance of $60.1 million at the end of the second quarter of 2020, a $26.8 million decline from December 31, 2019. This trend reversed and outstanding balances increased in the third and fourth quarters of 2020 finishing 2020 at $83.0 million. The losses due to specialty floor plan loan defaults continue to be at historic lows resulting in a 0.15% annualized net recovery rate in the second quarter of 2021, as compared to a 0.26% annualized net recovery rate in the first quarter of 2021 and a 1.62% annualized net charge off rate in the second quarter of 2020.

 

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $12.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, up $2.7 million, or 28.08%, from the same period in 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net interest income increased $4.1 million, or 20.60%, to $24.2 million from $20.1 million during the same period in 2020. These increases were primarily driven by an increase in interest and fees on loans and a decrease in deposit interest expense, partially offset by an increase in interest expense related to junior subordinated notes issued in November 2020.

 

Net interest margin (tax equivalent) increased to 4.38% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to 4.12% for the same period in 2020. The increase in net interest margin (tax equivalent) from June 30, 2020 was primarily driven by an increase in loan and investment balances and a decrease in balances and interest rates on time deposit accounts, partially offset by lower loan and investment yields and increased interest expense on the $18 million of subordinated notes issued in November of 2020.

 

Net interest margin (tax equivalent) decreased slightly to 4.47% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 4.48% for the same period in 2020. The change in net interest margin (tax equivalent) from June 30, 2020 was primarily driven by a lower loan and investment yields and interest expense on the subordinated notes issued in November of 2020, partially offset by increase in loan and investment balances and a decrease in interest rates on time deposit and money market accounts.

 

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 14.09%, from the second quarter of 2020. Year to date through June 30, 2021, noninterest income decreased $0.1 million, or 3.93% to $1.3 million from $1.4 million in the same period in 2020. These changes were primarily driven by a gain on sale of securities experienced in the second quarter of 2020.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense decreased $0.1 million, or 1.74%, in the second quarter of 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to net costs of operating other real estate owned. For the year to date through June 30, 2021, noninterest expense increased less than $0.1 million, or 0.27%, over the same period in 2020. The increases were primarily attributable to decreases in compensation and employee benefits and net costs of operation of other real estate owned, partially offset by an increase in data processing.

 

Loan Portfolio

The Company grew gross loans by $19.5 million, or an annualized rate of 8.80%, during the second quarter of 2021 and $30.5 million, or an annualized rate of 6.99%, for the year to date through June 30, 2021. Specialty floor plan loans increased by $8.2 million, or an annual rate of 41.38% for the quarter and $4.5 million, or an annual rate of 10.83%, for the year to date through June 30, 2021. Core Bank loans grew by $12.1 million, or an annual rate of 6.18%, and $27.4 million, or an annual rate of 7.21%, during the same periods, respectively. The growth of Core Bank loans was impacted by the forgiveness of $4.4 million and the origination of $0.8 million in PPP loans during the second quarter of 2021 and by the forgiveness of $21.6 million and the origination of $12.0 million in PPP loans during the year to date through June 30, 2021. Core Bank loans, excluding PPP loans, grew by $16.2 million, or an annual rate of 8.50%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and $37.5 million, or an annual rate of 10.15%, for the year to date through June 30, 2021. Purchased student loans continued to experience paydowns totaling $0.7 million, or an annual rate of 10.40%, for the second quarter of 2021 and $1.4 million, or an annual rate of 10.12%, for the year to date through June 30, 2021.
