    TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Jan. 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capital City Bank Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CCBG) today reported net income attributable to common shareowners of $11.7 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to net income of $11.3 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2022, and $6.4 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2021.

    For the full year of 2022, net income attributable to common shareowners totaled $40.1 million, or $2.36 per diluted share, compared to net income of $33.4 million, or $1.98 per diluted share, for the same period of 2021.

    QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS (4th Quarter 2022 versus 3rd Quarter 2022)

    • Continued strong growth in net interest income of 14% - net interest margin percentage grew 45 basis points to 3.76% - deposit cost well controlled at 20 basis points (total deposits) and 35 basis points (interest bearing deposits)
    • Loan growth of $179 million, or 7.6% (end of period) and $175 million, or 7.7% (average)
    • Continued strong credit quality metrics – higher credit loss provision primarily driven by loan growth
    • Noninterest income decreased $1.9 million, or 8.5%, primarily due to lower mortgage banking revenues at CCHL – strong adjustable rate portfolio production by CCHL contributed to loan growth for the quarter
    • Noninterest expense included a pension settlement charge of $1.8 million, or $0.08 per share
    • Tangible book value per share increased $1.19, or 7.2%, primarily due to strong earnings and a favorable re-measurement adjustment for pension plan

    Full Year 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

    • Strong growth in net interest income of 21% reflected improved earning asset mix and strength of deposit franchise
    • Loan growth of $594 million, or 30.7% (end of period) and $189 million, or 9.4% (year-to-date average)
    • Average Deposits grew $356 million, or 10.5%
    • CCHL contribution decreased $0.24 per share due to slower secondary market loan sales, but was more than offset by strong adjustable rate production for our loan portfolio, and higher wealth and deposit fees
    • Noninterest expense included pension settlement charges totaling $2.3 million or $0.11 per share
    • Tangible book value per share increased $0.54, or 3.2%, primarily due to strong earnings and a favorable re-measurement adjustment for pension plan, partially offset by higher unrealized investment security losses

    “Capital City finished out the year with another solid quarter highlighted by continued net interest margin expansion and nice tangible book value growth,” said William G. Smith, Jr., Chairman, President, and CEO of Capital City Bank Group. “I am proud of our associates who produced another record year of earnings. For the quarter and year, we realized strong loan growth, stable deposit growth, maintained good control of our deposit cost, and credit quality was strong. Still, we remain vigilant in the face of economic uncertainty. As we begin 2023, I am confident in our positioning, markets and strategic initiatives. Thank you to our associates for their tireless efforts serving our clients with excellence and to our shareowners for their continued support.”

    Discussion of Operating Results

    Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin

    Tax-equivalent net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2022 totaled $38.2 million, compared to $33.4 million for the third quarter of 2022, and $24.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. For the full year of 2022, tax-equivalent net interest income totaled $124.8 million compared to $103.2 million for the same period of 2021. Compared to the third quarter of 2022, the increase primarily reflected strong loan growth and higher interest rates across a majority of our earning assets. Compared to both prior year periods, the increase reflected strong loan growth, higher interest rates, and growth in the investment portfolio.

    Our net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 3.76%, an increase of 45 basis points over the third quarter of 2022 and 116 basis points over the fourth quarter of 2021, both driven by higher interest rates and an overall improved earning asset mix. For the fourth quarter of 2022, our cost of funds was 31 basis points, an increase of 11 basis points over the third quarter of 2022 and 22 basis points over the fourth quarter of 2021. Our cost of interest bearing deposits was 35 basis points, 20 basis points, and 4 basis points for the same aforementioned periods. For the month of December 2022, our net interest margin was 3.86%. Compared to the full year of 2021, the net interest margin increased by 30 basis points to 3.13% as the favorable impact of higher interest rates and an improved earning asset mix offset the favorable impact in 2021 from a significant level of SBA Paycheck Protection Program fee income.

    Provision for Credit Losses

    We recorded a provision for credit losses of $3.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2022 and no provision for the fourth quarter of 2021. For the full year of 2022, the provision was $7.2 million compared to a benefit of $1.6 million for the same period of 2021. The higher level of provision compared to all prior periods was primarily attributable to strong loan growth and weaker projected economic conditions, primarily a higher rate of unemployment. The credit loss provision in 2021 was favorably impacted by strong loan recoveries. We discuss the allowance for credit losses further below. 

    Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense

    Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2022 totaled $21.0 million compared to $22.9 million for the third quarter of 2022 and $24.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The $1.9 million decrease from the third quarter of 2022 was attributable to lower mortgage banking revenues of $1.6 million, wealth management fees of $0.3 million, deposit fees of $0.4 million, and bank card fees of $0.1 million, partially offset by higher other income of $0.5 million. The decrease in deposit fees was partially attributable to three less processing days in the fourth quarter. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, the $3.7 million decrease was attributable to lower mortgage banking revenues of $4.3 million, wealth management fees of $0.1 million, and bank card fees of $0.1 million, partially offset by higher other income of $0.6 million and deposit fees of $0.2 million.

    For the full year of 2022, noninterest income totaled $94.6 million compared to $107.5 million for the same period of 2021 and reflected lower mortgage banking revenues of $21.8 million, partially offset by higher wealth management fees of $4.4 million, deposit fees of $3.2 million, other income of $1.2 million, and bank card fees of $0.1 million. Lower mortgage banking revenues at Capital City Home Loans (“CCHL”) for 2022 reflected a reduction in refinancing activity and, to a lesser degree, lower purchase mortgage originations primarily driven by higher interest rates. In addition, gain on sale margins were pressured due to a lower level of governmental loan originations and mandatory delivery loan sales (both of which provide a higher gain on sale percentage). Throughout 2022, strong best efforts origination volume allowed us to book a steady flow of adjustable rate residential loans in our portfolio which contributed to loan growth and earnings. In addition, continued stability in our construction/permanent loan program partially offset the slowdown in secondary market originations. For 2022, CCHL realized a $0.2 million net loss ($0.01 per diluted share) versus $3.9 million net income ($0.23 per diluted share) in 2021.

    Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2022 totaled $42.3 million compared to $39.8 million for the third quarter of 2022 and $40.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The $2.5 million increase over the third quarter of 2022 was primarily attributable to higher other expense of $1.6 million and compensation expense of $0.8 million. Higher pension plan settlement expense of $1.7 million drove the increase in other expense. The increase in compensation expense was primarily due to higher variable/performance-based compensation of $0.3 million and lower realized loan cost of $0.3 million (credit offset to salary expense). Compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, the $2.1 million increase reflected higher other expense of $1.0 million, compensation expense of $0.8 million, and occupancy expense of $0.3 million. The increase in other expense reflected higher expense for legal, travel/entertainment, FDIC insurance fees, mortgage servicing right amortization, and loan servicing costs. The higher level of compensation expense was due to higher base salary expense reflective of annual merit raises and staffing additions related to new market expansion during 2022 and stock based compensation expense related to improved company performance for 2022.

    For the full year 2022, noninterest expense totaled $161.8 million compared to $162.5 million for the same period of 2021 and reflected lower compensation expense of $0.9 million and other expense of $0.4 million, partially offset by higher occupancy expense of $0.6 million. The reduction in compensation expense was primarily due to lower variable/performance-based compensation of $7.7 million and base salaries of $1.3 million at CCHL, partially offset by higher compensation at Capital City Bank, including variable/performance-based compensation totaling $2.5 million, base salaries (merit and new market staffing additions) of $3.1 million, lower realized loan cost of $1.4 million (credit offset to salary expense), associate insurance expense (utilized self-insurance reserves in 2021) of $0.6 million and stock compensation expense of $0.7 million. The decrease in other expense was primarily due to a decrease in pension related costs, including $4.9 million for the non-service related component and $0.8 million for pension plan settlement expense, partially offset by higher expense for other real estate expense of $1.2 million, travel/entertainment and advertising costs totaling $1.3 million (return to pre-pandemic levels and market expansion), other losses of $0.9 million (primarily debit card and check fraud), mortgage servicing right amortization of $0.6 million, VISA Class B share swap conversion ratio payments of $0.4 million, FDIC insurance fees of $0.3 million, and other miscellaneous costs for training, hiring, and variable expenses related to loan production. Gains from the sale of two banking offices in 2021 drove the increase in other real estate expense. The increase in occupancy expense is related to lease expense for four new banking offices added in 2022 and various software purchases, including network security and end of life upgrades.

    Income Taxes

    We realized income tax expense of $2.6 million (effective rate of 19.6%) for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $3.1 million (effective rate of 21.4%) for the third quarter of 2022 and $2.0 million (effective rate of 22.2%) for the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2022 was due to a favorable $0.4 million discrete tax item related to our SERP plan. For the full year of 2022, we realized income tax expense of $10.1 million (effective rate of 20.1%) compared to $9.8 million (effective rate of 19.9%) for the same period of 2021. Absent discrete items, we expect our annual effective tax rate to approximate 21%-22% in 2023.

    Discussion of Financial Condition

    Earning Assets

    Average earning assets totaled $4.033 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $22.8 million, or 0.6%, over the third quarter of 2022, and an increase of $241.4 million, or 6.4%, over the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase over both prior periods was primarily driven by higher deposit balances (see below – Funding). The mix of earning assets continues to improve driven by strong loan growth.

    We maintained an average net overnight funds (interest bearing deposits with banks plus FED funds sold less FED funds purchased) sold position of $469.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $570.0 million in the third quarter of 2022 and $789.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The declining overnight funds position reflects growth in average loans.

    Average loans held for investment (“HFI”) increased $175.3 million, or 7.7%, over the third quarter of 2022 and $491.1 million, or 25.2%, over the fourth quarter of 2021. Period end loans increased $179.0 million, or 7.6%, over the third quarter of 2022 and $593.7 million, or 30.7%, over the fourth quarter of 2021. The growth in 2022 was broad based with increases realized in all loan categories, more significantly, in the residential real estate, construction, and commercial real estate categories.

    Allowance for Credit Losses

    At December 31, 2022, the allowance for credit losses for HFI loans totaled $24.7 million compared to $22.5 million at September 30, 2022 and $21.6 million at December 31, 2021. Activity within the allowance is provided on Page 12. Incremental allowance related to loan growth, a higher projected rate of unemployment and its effect on rates of default, and slower prepayment speeds (due to higher interest rates) were all contributing factors driving the increase in the allowance during 2022. At December 31, 2022, the allowance represented 0.98% of HFI loans compared to 0.96% at September 30, 2022, and 1.12% at December 31, 2021.

    Credit Quality

    Overall credit quality remains strong. Nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans and other real estate) totaled $2.7 million at December 31, 2022 compared to $2.4 million at September 30, 2022 and $4.3 million at December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2022, nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets equaled 0.06%, compared to 0.06% at September 30, 2022 and 0.10% at December 31, 2021. Nonaccrual loans totaled $2.2 million at December 31, 2022, a $0.2 million decrease from September 30, 2022 and a $2.1 million decrease from December 31, 2021. Further, classified loans totaled $19.3 million at December 31, 2022, a $1.6 million decrease from September 30, 2022 and a $1.4 million increase over December 31, 2021.

    Funding (Deposits/Debt)

    Average total deposits were $3.803 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $33.2 million, or 0.9%, over the third quarter of 2022 and $253.9 million, or 7.2%, over the fourth quarter of 2021. Compared to the third quarter of 2022, the increase reflected higher NOW account balances, primarily due to a seasonal increase in our public fund deposits. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, we have had strong growth in our noninterest bearing, NOW, and savings account balances. We continue to closely monitor our cost of deposits and deposit mix as we manage through this rising rate environment.

    Capital

    Shareowners’ equity was $394.0 million at December 31, 2022 compared to $373.2 million at September 30, 2022 and $383.2 million at December 31, 2021. For the full year 2022, shareowners’ equity was positively impacted by net income attributable to common shareowners of $40.1 million, a $3.1 million increase in the fair value of the interest rate swap related to subordinated debt, stock compensation accretion of $1.3 million, net adjustments totaling $1.6 million related to transactions under our stock compensation plans, and an $8.7 million decrease in the accumulated other comprehensive loss for our pension plan. Shareowners’ equity was reduced by common stock dividends of $11.2 million ($0.66 per share) and a $32.8 million increase in the unrealized loss on investment securities.

    At December 31, 2022, our total risk-based capital ratio was 15.52% compared to 15.75% at September 30, 2022 and 17.15% at December 31, 2021. Our common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 12.64%, 12.83%, and 13.86%, respectively, on these dates. Our leverage ratio was 9.06%, 8.91%, and 8.95%, respectively, on these dates. Further, our tangible common equity ratio was 6.79% at December 31, 2022 compared to 6.61% and 6.95% at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The decline in our regulatory capital ratios compared to 2021 was attributable to strong loan growth during 2022. At December 31, 2022, all of our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the threshold to be designated as “well-capitalized” under the Basel III capital standards.
