STRASBURG, Va., Jan. 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — First National Corporation (the “Company” or “First National”) (NASDAQ: FXNC), the bank holding company of First Bank (the “Bank”), reported unaudited consolidated net income of $3.2 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2020, which resulted in a return on average assets of 1.31% and a return on average equity of 15.03%. This compares to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, and a return on average assets of 1.36% and a return on average equity of 14.10% for the fourth quarter of 2019. Recovery of loan losses of $200 thousand and provision for loan losses of $250 thousand were included in net income for the three-month periods ending December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
For the year ending December 31, 2020, net income totaled $8.9 million, or $1.82 per diluted share, which resulted in a return on average assets of 0.98% and a return on average equity of 10.92%. This compares to net income of $9.6 million, or $1.92 per diluted share, and a return on average assets of 1.23% and a return on average equity of 13.19% for the same period of 2019. Provision for loan losses of $3.0 million and $450 thousand was included in net income for the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

- Return on average assets of 1.31%
- Return on average equity of 15.03%
- Efficiency ratio of 61.00%
- Net interest income increased $382 thousand, or 5%

“Fourth quarter performance provided a strong finish to an otherwise challenging but rewarding year,” said Scott Harvard, president and chief executive officer of First National. Harvard continued, “Financial results for the quarter were exceptional, while performance for the year was surprisingly good considering the business challenges created by the pandemic. Although non-performing assets increased during the year and certain loans were modified to help business customers navigate a difficult operating environment, we are pleased with the Bank’s overall asset quality. Another bright spot in the company has been consistent growth of our wealth management business as wealth management revenue increased by 21% over the same quarter of the prior year. The entire First Bank team demonstrated why bankers are essential workers as they navigated family, health, and work to deliver the personal financial services needed by our small businesses, neighbors and friends.”
COVID-19 PANDEMIC UPDATE
Operations
During the fourth quarter, the Bank continued to follow its Pandemic Plan that strives to protect the health of its employees and customers, while continuing to deliver essential banking services. In response to an increasing number of COVID-19 cases in our communities during the fourth quarter, the Bank re-entered phase one of its plan on December 9, 2020 after operating under phase two of its plan since July 1, 2020. Phase one of the plan limits access to banking offices while delivering a majority of its banking services through branch drive throughs, ATMs, and mobile and internet banking platforms.
Paycheck Protection Program
The Bank participated as a lender in the U.S. Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) to support local small businesses and non-profit organizations. During the second and third quarters of 2020, the Bank originated $76.6 million of PPP loans, received $2.5 million of loan fees, and incurred $535 thousand of loan origination costs. The original PPP provided forgivable loans over a five month period before it stopped accepting applications in August of 2020. The loan fees are being accreted into earnings evenly over the life of the loans, net of the loan costs, through interest and fees on loans. At December 31, 2020, PPP loan balances totaled $64.7 million with 98% of the loan balances maturing in the second quarter of 2022 and 2% of loan balances maturing in the third quarter of 2025. As of December 31, 2020, customers with PPP loan balances totaling $2.0 million had requested debt forgiveness but have not yet received notifications of forgiveness decisions from the SBA.
Congress recently revived the PPP (“new PPP”) as part of the COVID-19 relief bill that was signed into law on December 27, 2020. The Bank began participating as a lender in the new PPP in January of 2021. As of January 25, 2021, the Bank originated $2.1 million of new PPP loans. Loan fees received on new PPP loans will also be accreted into earnings evenly over the life of the loans, net of the loan costs, through interest and fees on loans. These new PPP loans will mature in the first quarter of 2026.
Asset Quality Impact
The pandemic has negatively impacted the financial condition of certain loan customers. The Bank expects certain sectors of its commercial real estate loan portfolio, including retail shopping, lodging and leisure, may experience elevated financial pressure in future periods. Those sectors comprised 5%, 5% and 2% of the loan portfolio, respectively, excluding PPP loans, at December 31, 2020. The Bank also expects that loans in those same sectors of its commercial and industrial loan portfolio may experience financial pressure in future periods. The magnitude of the potential decline in the Bank’s loan quality in future periods will likely depend on the duration of the pandemic and the extent that the Bank’s customers experience business interruptions.
Loan Modifications
In response to the unknown impact of the pandemic on the economy and its customers, the Bank created and implemented a loan payment deferral program for individual and business customers beginning in the first quarter of 2020, which provided them the opportunity to defer monthly payments for 90 days. At June 30, 2020, loans participating in the program totaled $182.6 million. The majority of these loans resumed regular payments during the second half of the year after their deferral periods ended. Loans that remained in the program totaled $1.2 million at December 31, 2020.
During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Bank modified terms of certain loans for customers that continued to be negatively impacted by the pandemic. The loan modifications lowered borrower’s loan payments by allowing interest only payments for periods ranging between 6 and 24 months. All loans modified were in the Bank’s commercial real estate loan portfolio and totaled $14.3 million at December 31, 2020. The loans were comprised of $12.8 million in the lodging sector and $1.5 million in the leisure sector.
Capital
The Company issued $5.0 million of subordinated debt in June 2020 as a result of its enterprise risk management and capital planning. The purpose of the issuance was primarily to further strengthen holding company liquidity and to remain a source of strength for the Bank in the event of a severe economic downturn. The Company may also use the proceeds of the issuance for general corporate purposes, including the potential repayment of the Company’s subordinated debt issued in 2015, which became callable on a quarterly basis beginning January 1, 2021. The Company issued the debt at a 5.50% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated note due 2030 to an institutional investor and was structured to qualify as Tier 2 capital under bank regulatory guidelines.
The Company’s stock repurchase plan remained suspended during the fourth quarter of 2020 and ended on December 31, 2020. The Company has not authorized another stock repurchase plan due to the potential impact of the pandemic on the economy and the Bank’s customers. The Company continued to pay cash dividends on common stock of $0.11 per share in the fourth quarter of 2020, which were unchanged from cash dividends paid during the first, second and third quarters of 2020.
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets of First National increased $150.9 million, or 19%, to $950.9 million at December 31, 2020, compared to $800.0 million at December 31, 2019. Total securities increased $15.9 million, while loans, net of the allowance for loan losses, increased $53.0 million, or 9%. The growth in the loan portfolio included PPP loans that totaled $64.7 million at the end of the year.
Total liabilities increased $143.2 million, or 20%, to $866.0 million at December 31, 2020, compared to $722.8 million one year ago. The increase in total liabilities was primarily attributable to significant growth in deposits. Total deposits increased $136.0 million, or 19%, to $842.5 million. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $73.6 million, or 39%, savings and interest-bearing demand deposits increased $79.8 million, or 20%, while time deposits decreased $17.4 million, or 15%. The origination of PPP loans contributed to the deposit growth as many customers deposited proceeds of the loans in their deposit accounts at the Bank. Although proceeds from PPP loan originations during the second and third quarters of 2020 contributed to the increase in deposits, the Bank also experienced a significant amount of deposit growth not related to proceeds from PPP loan originations.
Shareholders’ equity increased $7.7 million, or 10%, to $84.9 million at December 31, 2020, compared to one year ago, from a $6.7 million increase in retained earnings and a $2.7 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive income. These increases were partially offset by $1.7 million decrease in common stock and surplus, which resulted from stock repurchases in the first quarter of 2020. The Bank was considered well-capitalized at December 31, 2020.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF THE THREE-MONTH PERIOD
Net interest income increased $382 thousand, or 5%, to $7.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to the same period of 2019. The increase resulted from a $593 thousand, or 48%, decrease in total interest expense, which was partially offset by a $211 thousand decrease in total interest and dividend income. The net interest margin decreased 49 basis points to 3.30%. The decrease in the net interest margin was offset by growth in average earning assets of $158.8 million, or 21%, and resulted in an increase in net interest income.
The decrease in interest expense was primarily a result of the $632 thousand, or 61%, decrease in interest expense on deposits, which was attributable to reduced interest rates paid on deposits. The impact of a $79.1 million, or 15% increase in average interest-bearing deposits was offset by a 53-basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing deposits. A 49-basis point reduction of the cost of interest-bearing checking accounts and a 108-basis point reduction of the cost of money market accounts made the largest contributions to the decrease in interest expense.
The decrease in total interest and dividend income resulted from an 87-basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets, which was partially offset by a $158.8 million, or 21%, increase in average earning assets. The decrease in the yield on earning assets resulted from a 35-basis point decrease in the yield on securities, a 54-basis point decrease in the yield on loans, and a 153-basis point decrease in the yield on interest-bearing deposits in banks. The loan yield was negatively impacted by PPP loans earning a 1.00% interest rate. Additionally, the mix of earning assets had an unfavorable impact on the yield on average earning assets as lower yielding interest-bearing deposits in banks increased from 5% to 13% of average earning assets.
Noninterest income decreased $189 thousand, or 8%, to $2.2 million compared to the same period of 2019. Service charges on deposits decreased $200 thousand, or 27%, to $553 thousand, and ATM and check card fees decreased $78 thousand, or 12%, to $576 thousand. The decrease in service charges on deposits resulted from a reduction in overdraft fee income, which management believes was a result of the significant increase in deposit balances and a decrease in consumer spending. ATM and check card fees decreased primarily from the timing of an annual incentive payment from the Company’s check card processing vendor, which was received in the fourth quarter of 2019. These decreases were partially offset by wealth management fees, which increased $102 thousand, or 21%, from a higher amount of assets under management.
Noninterest expense increased $90 thousand, or 2%, to $5.9 million, compared to the same period one year ago. The increase was primarily attributable to a $158 thousand increase in FDIC assessment expense. This was partially offset by a $105 thousand decrease in other operating expense, which resulted from lower amounts of fraud losses on check cards, dues and subscriptions, employee training expense, and loan servicing costs.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD
Net interest income increased $1.5 million, or 5%, to $29.5 million for the year ending December 31, 2020, compared to the same period of 2019. The increase resulted from a $1.5 million, or 31%, decrease in total interest expense. Total interest and dividend income was unchanged at $32.9 million. The net interest margin decreased 38 basis points to 3.50%. The decrease in the net interest margin was offset by growth in average earning assets of $118.8 million, or 16%.
The decrease in total interest expense resulted primarily from a $1.5 million decrease in interest expense on deposits, which was attributable to reduced interest rates paid on deposits. The impact of a $63.4 million or 13%, increase in average interest-bearing deposits was offset by a 36-basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing deposits. A 49-basis point reduction of the cost of interest-bearing checking accounts and a 77-basis point reduction of the cost of money market accounts made the largest contributions to the decrease in interest expense.
Total interest and dividend income remained unchanged from a $118.8 million, or 16%, increase in average earning assets, which was offset by a 65-basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets. The decrease in the yield on earning assets resulted from a 25-basis point decrease in the yield on securities, a 41-basis point decrease in the yield on loans, and a 175-basis point decrease in the yield on interest-bearing deposits in banks. The loan yield was negatively impacted by PPP loans earning a 1.00% interest rate. Additionally, the mix of earning assets had an unfavorable impact on the yield on average earning assets as lower yielding interest-bearing deposits in banks increased from 3% to 10% of average earning assets.
Noninterest income decreased $327 thousand, or 4%, to $8.2 million, compared to the same period of 2019, primarily from a $898 thousand, or 31%, decrease in service charges on deposits. The decrease in service charges on deposits was attributable to lower overdraft fee income, which is believed to be a result of the significant increase in deposit balances and a decrease in consumer spending. This decrease was partially offset by a $340 thousand, or 18%, increase in wealth management fees, which resulted from higher amounts of assets under management.
Noninterest expense decreased $532 thousand, or 2%, to $23.8 million, compared to the same period one year ago. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $296 thousand, or 45%, decrease in marketing expense and a $431 thousand decrease in other operating expense, which resulted from lower amounts of fraud losses on check cards, dues and subscriptions, employee training expense, and loan servicing costs.
ASSET QUALITY/LOAN LOSS PROVISION
There was a recovery of loan losses of $200 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2020, which was attributable to a decrease in the general reserve and specific reserve components of the allowance for loan losses. The decrease in the general reserve resulted from a decrease in loan balances during the quarter and a favorable change in asset quality. Net charge-offs totaled $92 thousand for the quarter compared to $228 thousand for the same period one year ago. The allowance for loan losses totaled $7.5 million, or 1.19% of total loans at December 31, 2020. Excluding PPP loans, the allowance for loan losses totaled 1.32% of total loans. Provision for loan losses totaled $250 thousand for the same period of 2019 and the allowance for loan losses totaled $4.9 million, or 0.86% of total loans at December 31, 2019.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, provision for loan losses totaled $3.0 million and resulted from increases in the general and specific reserve components of the allowance for loan losses. The increase in the general reserve resulted from the Bank’s observation of unfavorable changes in economic indicators and consideration of risks associated with modified loans that were negatively impacted by the pandemic. The specific reserve component of the allowance for loan losses increased from reserves placed on newly identified impaired loans. Net charge offs on loans also contributed to the provision for loan losses, which totaled $449 thousand for the year ending December 31, 2020, compared to $525 thousand for the prior year. Provision for loan losses totaled $450 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Loans 30 to 89 days past due and accruing totaled $996 thousand, or 0.16% of total loans at December 31, 2020 compared to $2.4 million, or 0.41% of total loans one year ago. Accruing substandard loans totaled $1.4 million at December 31, 2020 and $3.4 million at December 31, 2019. Nonperforming assets consisted only of non-accrual loans, which totaled $6.7 million, or 0.71% of total assets at December 31, 2020, compared to $1.5 million, or 0.18% of total assets one year ago.

(1) The efficiency ratio is computed by dividing noninterest expense excluding other real estate owned income/expense, amortization of intangibles, and gains and losses on disposal of premises and equipment by the sum of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis and noninterest income, excluding gains and losses on sales of securities. Tax-equivalent net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit realized from interest income that is nontaxable to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. The tax rate utilized in calculating the tax benefit is 21%. See the tables above for tax-equivalent net interest income and reconciliations of net interest income to tax-equivalent net interest income. The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes provides investors with important information regarding operational efficiency. Such information is not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be construed as such. Management believes; however, such financial information is meaningful to the reader in understanding operational performance but cautions that such information is not viewed as a substitute for GAAP.
