MVB Financial Corp. Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Results

FAIRMONT, W.Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
MVB Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: MVBF) (“MVB Financial,” “MVB” or the “Company”), the holding company for MVB Bank, Inc. (“MVB Bank”), today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024, with reported net income of $9.4 million, or $0.73 basic and $0.72 diluted earnings per share for the three months ended December 31, 2024.

Fourth Quarter 2024 Highlights

Net income was $9.4 million, an increase of $7.4 million from prior quarter.

Noninterest bearing deposits represent 34.9% of total deposits.

Tangible book value per share of $23.37, up 0.7% from the prior quarter.

Capital strength further enhanced.

MVB names Jeffrey Weidley as Chief Deposit Officer and Joe Rodriguez as Chief Risk Officer.

From Larry F. Mazza, Chief Executive Officer, MVB Financial:

“While the fourth quarter presented financial challenges, MVB continued to adapt and narrow our strategic focus, positioning the company for long-term success. The fourth quarter marked the end of a pivotal transition year, during which we simplified our growth strategy and strengthened our team to make meaningful investments in the future. Recent key leadership appointments have been made to help support this shift. In mid-November, risk management industry veteran Joe Rodriguez, formerly of Capital One, joined as Chief Risk Officer, bringing a wealth of experience in transforming risk management into a key business driver. After year-end, we appointed Jeffrey Weidley as Chief Deposit Officer. A seasoned banker in the DC metro area, Jeffrey will oversee strategies to grow MVB’s deposit base.

“Looking ahead, I’m encouraged by the continued evolution of our business model and our strong foundation, which includes a best-in-class core funding profile, a strong liquidity position, capital management strength and stable asset quality. Our laser focus on payments continues to drive meaningful progress, as we deliver innovative solutions to support our existing clients and grow revenue. With loan pipelines building and a renewed sense of optimism across the broader economy, MVB is well-positioned to adapt to future opportunities and create long-term value for our clients and stakeholders.”

FOURTH QUARTER 2024 HIGHLIGHTS

  • Noninterest income higher on gain on sale of assets and higher revenue from Victor subsidiary; expenses higher due primarily to higher personnel costs.
    • Total noninterest income increased $14.6 million, or 219.7%, relative to the prior quarter, to $21.3 million. The increase is primarily attributable to the $11.8 million gain on sale of assets associated with the previously disclosed sale-leaseback transaction, an increase of $1.2 million in other operating income, driven by net deposit network fee income and revenue from our subsidiary Victor Technologies, Inc. (“Victor”), and a $1.0 million increase in gain on sale of loans.

    • Noninterest expense increased $4.1 million, or 14.0%, relative to the prior quarter, to $33.6 million. The increase is primarily due to employee benefits costs and incentive compensation, as well as higher professional fees driven by incremental internal audit and legal fees. Additionally, other operating expenses increased reflecting higher correspondent banking fees driven by transaction volume.

  • Measures of foundational strength were further enhanced.
    • The Community Bank Leverage Ratio, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio and MVB Bank’s Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio were 11.2%, 15.1%, and 15.8%, respectively, compared to 10.9%, 14.9%, and 15.7%, respectively, at the prior quarter-end.

    • The tangible common equity ratio, a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, was 9.7% as of December 31, 2024, up from 8.8% as of September 30, 2024.

    • Book value per share and tangible book value per share, a non-U.S. GAAP measure, were $23.61 and $23.37, respectively, which both represent increases of 0.7% relative to the prior quarter-end.

    • Nonperforming loans declined $3.9 million, or 13.8%, to $24.6 million, or 1.2% of total loans, from $28.6 million, or 1.3% of total loans, at the prior quarter-end. Criticized loans totaled $130.5 million, or 6.2% of total loans, as compared to $124.2 million, or 5.7% of total loans, at the prior quarter-end.

    • Provision for credit losses totaled $0.3 million, down from $1.0 million for the prior quarter as a result of lower loan balances. Allowance for credit losses was 0.9% of total loans at December 31, 2024, as compared to 1.0% at the prior quarter-end.

INCOME STATEMENT

Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis totaled $25.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decline of $1.7 million, or 6.3%, from the third quarter of 2024 and $6.2 million, or 19.8%, from the fourth quarter of 2023. The decline in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the prior periods was driven by a decline in the net interest margin and lower average earning asset balances.

Interest income declined $3.6 million, or 7.7%, from the third quarter of 2024 and $6.6 million, or 13.4%, from the fourth quarter of 2023. The decline from the third quarter of 2024 reflects lower loan balances and the impact of lower interest rates on interest income from loans and cash balances. The decline from the fourth quarter of 2023 reflects a decline in cash balances, largely driven by the exit of digital asset program accounts, a decline in loan balances and the impact of lower interest rates on interest income from loans and cash balances.

Interest expense declined $1.9 million, or 9.4%, compared to the third quarter of 2024 and $0.4 million, or 2.4%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. The cost of funds was 2.56% for the fourth quarter of 2024, down 21 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2024 and up 12 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. The decline in the cost of funds compared to the prior quarter reflects lower brokered deposits. Additionally, the current quarter cost of funds reflected $0.2 million of termination costs related to the Company’s decision to call a brokered certificate of deposit (“CD”) during the fourth quarter of 2024, while the prior quarter reflected termination costs of $0.3 million associated with two brokered CDs that were called during the third quarter of 2024. Relative to the year-ago period, the increase in the cost of funds reflects the impact of higher interest rates on our deposits, a shift in the mix of average deposits and the exit of the digital asset program account relationships.

On a fully tax-equivalent basis, net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 3.46%, a decline of 15 basis points from the third quarter of 2024 and 60 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2023. See the table below for a reconciliation between net interest margin and net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP measure. Contraction in the net interest margin from the third quarter of 2024 primarily reflected lower loan balances, partially offset by lower funding costs. Contraction in the net interest margin from the fourth quarter of 2023 primarily reflected higher funding costs and an unfavorable shift in the mix of deposit funding, partially offset by higher earning asset yields.

Noninterest income totaled $21.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of $14.6 million, or 219.7%, from the third quarter of 2024 and $16.8 million, or 379.5%, from the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase compared to the third quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by the $11.8 million gain on sale of assets associated with the sale-leaseback transaction and increases of $1.2 million in other operating income, driven by revenue from our subsidiary Victor, and $1.0 million in gain on sale of loans. The increase in noninterest income from the fourth quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by the $11.8 million gain on sale of assets associated with the sale-leaseback transaction and $1.3 million in equity method investment income from our mortgage companies, compared to a $2.4 million loss in equity method investment income from our mortgage segment in the prior year period.

Noninterest expense totaled $33.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of $4.1 million, or 14.0%, from the third quarter of 2024 and $5.3 million, or 18.8%, from the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase from the third quarter of 2024 was driven by increases of $2.1 million in employee benefits and incentive compensation, $1.1 million in professional fees, driven by incremental internal audit and legal fees, and $0.9 million in other operating expense, driven by higher correspondent banking fees as transaction volume increased. The increase from the fourth quarter of 2023 primarily reflected increases of $3.9 million in employee benefits and incentive compensation, $0.8 million in other operating expense and $0.5 million in travel, entertainment, dues and subscriptions.

BALANCE SHEET

Loans totaled $2.10 billion at December 31, 2024, a decline of $71.1 million, or 3.3%, as compared to September 30, 2024 and $217.5 million, or 9.4%, as compared to December 31, 2023. The decline in loan balances relative to the prior quarters primarily reflects loan sales, slower loan growth based on overall market conditions and the impact of loan amortization and payoffs.

Deposits totaled $2.69 billion as of December 31, 2024, a decline of $308.0 million, or 10.3%, from September 30, 2024 and $207.9 million, or 7.2%, from December 31, 2023. NIB deposits totaled $941.0 million as of December 31, 2024, a decline of $48.2 million, or 4.9%, from September 30, 2024 and $256.3 million, or 21.4%, from December 31, 2023. The decline in deposit balances relative to the prior quarters primarily reflects the utilization of off-balance sheet deposit networks to generate fee income, enhance capital efficiency and manage liquidity and concentration risk. Relative to the prior year period, the decline in deposit balances also reflects the exit of digital asset program accounts.

In January 2025, the Bank sold its interest in Trabian Technology, Inc (“Trabian”). As a result, the related assets and liabilities of Trabian are shown as held-for-sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

CAPITAL

The Community Bank Leverage Ratio was 11.2% as of December 31, 2024, compared to 10.9% as of September 30, 2024 and 10.5% as of December 31, 2023. MVB’s Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 15.1% as of December 31, 2024, compared to 14.9% as of September 30, 2024 and 14.4% as of December 31, 2023. The Bank’s Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 15.8% as of December 31, 2024, compared to 15.7% as of September 30, 2024 and 15.1% as of December 31, 2023.

The Company issued a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, consistent with the quarters ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

ASSET QUALITY

Nonperforming loans totaled $24.6 million, or 1.2% of total loans, as of the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to $28.6 million, or 1.3% of total loans as of the third quarter of 2024 and $8.3 million, or 0.4% of total loans as of the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase in nonperforming loans reflects the addition of a multifamily commercial construction loan with an outstanding balance of $13.5 million during the year. Criticized loans were $130.5 million, or 6.2% of total loans, as compared to $124.2 million, or 5.7% of total loans, as of the third quarter of 2024 and $122.4 million, or 5.3% of total loans, as of the fourth quarter of 2023.

Net charge-offs were $1.5 million, or 0.3% of total loans, for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $0.7 million, or 0.1% of total loans, for the third quarter of 2024 and $0.5 million, or 0.1% of total loans for the fourth quarter of 2023.

The provision for credit losses totaled $0.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, compared to $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and a release of allowance of $2.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The lower provision for credit losses for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 compared to September 30, 2024 reflected lower loan balances. The allowance for credit losses was 0.9% of total loans at December 31, 2024, as compared to 1.0% as of September 30, 2024 and 1.0% as of December 31, 2023.

These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations about the future and are subject to risks and uncertainties.

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

This document contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Management uses these non-U.S. GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures should not be considered a substitute for U.S. GAAP basis measures nor should they be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes the presentation of non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of specified items provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results. Non-U.S. GAAP measures are not formally defined under U.S. GAAP, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by us. As a complement to U.S. GAAP financial measures, our management believes these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures assist investors in comparing the financial condition and results of operations of financial institutions due to the industry prevalence of such non-U.S. GAAP measures. See the tables below for a reconciliation of these non-U.S. GAAP measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.

1 In order to make pre-tax income and resultant yields on tax-exempt loans and investment securities comparable to those on taxable loans and investment securities, a tax-equivalent adjustment has been computed using a Federal tax rate of 21% for the periods presented, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure included in the tables on page 13.

2 Non-accrual loans are included in total loan balances, lowering the effective yield for the portfolio in the aggregate.

3 The senior term loan was paid off in May 2024, and the unamortized debt issuance costs were recorded as interest expense upon the repayment.

1 In order to make pre-tax income and resultant yields on tax-exempt loans and investment securities comparable to those on taxable loans and investment securities, a tax-equivalent adjustment has been computed using a Federal tax rate of 21% for the periods presented, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure included in the tables on page 13.

2 Non-accrual loans are included in total loan balances, lowering the effective yield for the portfolio in the aggregate.

3 The senior term loan was paid off in May 2024, and the unamortized debt issuance costs were recorded as interest expense upon the repayment.
