Overview of Results

Net interest income.  Net interest income totaled $3.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and increased $568,000, or 19.3%, compared to $2.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.  The increase in net interest income was primarily due to a $663,000, or 17.8%, increase in interest income, partially offset by a $95,000, or 11.9%, increase in interest expense.  The increase in interest income was primarily attributed to a $49.7 million, or 14.0%, increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding and a 14bp increase in average yield on interest-earning assets.  The increase in interest expense was primarily attributed to a $12.6 million, or 4.2%, increase in average interest-bearing liabilities.  As a result, net interest margin of 3.47% for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 increased 15bps compared to the net interest margin of 3.32% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Net interest income totaled $10.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and increased approximately $1.5 million, or 18.2%, compared to $8.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.  The increase in net interest income was primarily due to a $1.8 million, or 16.7%, increase in interest income, partially offset by a $241,000, or 10.8%, increase in interest expense.  The increase in interest income was primarily attributed to a $57.5 million, or 17.1%, increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding, partially offset by a 2bps decrease in average yield on interest-earning assets.  The increase in interest expense was primarily attributed to a $22.3 million, or 7.9%, increase in average interest-bearing liabilities outstanding and a 2bp increase in the average cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities.  As a result, net interest margin of 3.37% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased 3bps compared to the net interest margin of 3.34% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Robert E. Hoeweler, Chairman of the Board, added "Our seasoned team has achieved a consistent track record of improving performance which includes earnings growth, strengthening credit quality, along with demonstrating our ability to compete effectively for desirable loan and deposit business and customers.  Our expansion into the Cincinnati region is gaining traction.  We remain pleased with our trajectory and business prospects."

Provision for loan and lease losses.  The provision for loan losses totaled $0 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and decreased $20,000, compared to $20,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.  The decrease in the provision for loan losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to continued improvement in credit quality, favorable trends in certain qualitative factors and net recoveries for the quarter.  Net recoveries for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 totaled $6,000.  The ratio of the ALLL to nonperforming loans was 670.9% as of September 30, 2017.  

The provision for loan losses totaled $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and decreased $230,000, compared to $230,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.  The decrease in the provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to continued improvement in credit quality, favorable trends in certain qualitative factors and net recoveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.  Net recoveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 totaled $39,000

Noninterest income.  Noninterest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 totaled $195,000 and decreased $155,000, or 44.3%, compared to $350,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to a $135,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts and a $23,000 decrease in net gain on sale of loans.  The decrease in service charges on deposit accounts was primarily related to a decrease in overdraft fee income. The decrease in net gain on sale of loans was primarily due to lower sales volume.  

Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 totaled $538,000 and decreased $406,000, or 43.0%, compared to $944,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.  The decrease was primarily due to a $322,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts and a $57,000 decrease in other noninterest income.  The decrease in service charges on deposit accounts was primarily related to a decrease in overdraft fee income. The decrease in other noninterest income was primarily related to decreased activity related to the Company's joint ventures.  

Noninterest expense.  Noninterest expense increased $170,000, or 6.8%, and totaled $2.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, compared to $2.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.  The increase in noninterest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to a $261,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits expense, a $30,000 increase in FDIC premiums, which was partially offset by a $102,000 decrease in professional fees. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was due to an increase in experienced commercial lenders, coupled with an increase in personnel in operations, credit and information technology to support our growth, infrastructure and risk management practices.  FDIC premiums increased primarily due to growth.  The decrease in professional fees was primarily due to elevated expenses incurred during the third quarter of 2016 for work-out expenses and various other consulting services.

Noninterest expense increased $750,000, or 10.3%, and totaled $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $7.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.  The increase in noninterest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to a $840,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits expense, a $71,000 increase in occupancy and equipment and a $53,000 increase in FDIC premiums, partially offset by a $250,000 decrease in professional fees.  The increase in salaries and employee benefits was due to an increase in experienced commercial lenders, coupled with an increase in personnel in operations, credit and information technology to support our growth, infrastructure and risk management practices.  The increase in occupancy and equipment was primarily due to various maintenance items, equipment purchases and lease expense related to the opening of our new Glendale branch in the Cincinnati market.  FDIC premiums increased primarily due to growth.  The decrease in professional fees was primarily due to elevated expenses incurred in 2016 for recruiting, work-out expenses, various other consulting services, and mortgage and information technology projects.   

Income tax expense.  Income tax expense was $332,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $83,000 compared to $249,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.    The effective tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 was approximately 32.6% and 33.0%, respectively, which management believes is a reasonable estimate for the effective tax rate.

Income tax expense was $810,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $207,000 compared to $603,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.  The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 was approximately 33.0% and 32.7%, respectively, which management believes is a reasonable estimate for the effective tax rate.

Balance Sheet Activity

General.  Assets totaled $448.9 million at September 30, 2017 and increased $12.8 million, or 2.9%, from $436.1 million at December 31, 2016.  The increase was primarily due to a $41.6 million increase in net loan and lease balances, partially offset by a $30.0 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents.

Cash and cash equivalentsCash and cash equivalents totaled $28.0 million at September 30, 2017 and decreased approximately $30.0 million, or 51.8%, from $57.9 million at December 31, 2016.  The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily a result of funding loan growth.

Securities.  Securities available for sale totaled $11.9 million at September 30, 2017 and decreased $2.2 million, or 15.5%, from $14.1 million at December 31, 2016. The decrease was a result of scheduled maturities and repayments.

Loans and Leases.  Net loans and leases totaled $387.7 million at September 30, 2017 and increased $41.6 million, or 12.0%, from $346.1 million at December 31, 2016.  The increase was primarily due to a $20.1 million increase in commercial loan balances, a $12.9 million increase in construction loan balances, a $4.4 million increase in multi-family loans balances, a $2.4 million increase in commercial real estate loan balances, and a $1.6 million increase in home equity lines of credit.  The increases in the aforementioned loan balances were primarily due to increased sales activity and new relationships. 

Allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL).  The ALLL totaled $7.0 million at September 30, 2017 and increased $39,000, or 0.6%, from $6.9 million at December 31, 2016.  The increase in the ALLL was due to net recoveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.  The ratio of the ALLL to total loans was 1.76% at September 30, 2017 compared to 1.96% at December 31, 2016.  The ratio of the ALLL to nonperforming loans was 670.9% at September 30, 2017, compared to 983.7% at December 31, 2016.

Foreclosed assets.  Foreclosed assets totaled $0 at September 30, 2017 compared to $204,000 at December 31, 2016.  Foreclosed assets at December 31, 2016 consisted of one single-family residential property that was transferred into REO at fair value in December 2016.  This property was sold during the second quarter of 2017.

Deposits.  Deposits totaled $381.0 million at September 30, 2017 and increased $5.6 million, or 1.5%, from $375.4 million at December 31, 2016.  The increase was primarily attributed to a $4.4 million increase in certificates of deposits, a $3.1 million increase in checking account balances and a $626,000 increase in savings account balances, partially offset by a $2.6 million decrease in money market account balances.  The majority of the increase in deposit balances was a result of management's focused sales and marketing efforts to grow deposits to fund loan growth.

Stockholders' equity. Stockholders' equity totaled $40.6 million at September 30, 2017, an increase of $1.3 million or 3.2%, from $39.3 million at December 31, 2016.  The increase in total stockholders' equity was primarily attributed to net income, which was partially offset by the dividends paid on the Company's Series B Preferred Stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Conversion of Preferred Stock to Common Stock

On September 29, 2017, the Company announced the conversion of its Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock of the Company.  The conversion was effective October 6, 2017 and resulted in the conversion of all 480,000 shares of the Company's issued and outstanding of Series B Preferred Stock into approximately 6,857,143 shares of Common Stock.  The conversion was the result of the increased market price of the Company's Common Stock, which closed above $2.3625 for 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days, and occurred within one quarter following the third anniversary of the original date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, which was the earliest date permitted for the exercise of the Company's conversion option under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock.

The conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock results in the elimination of the non-cumulative preferred dividend payments on the Series B Preferred Stock beginning with the 4th quarter of 2017. The preferred dividends, in the aggregate amount of approximately $187,500 quarterly, or approximately $750,000 annually, will not be payable by the Company going forward.   Timothy T. O'Dell, President and CEO, commented, "The issuance of our Series B Preferred Stock in 2014 provided important capital and was a catalyst contributing to the growth and profitability of CFBank. It fulfilled its intended purpose and we are grateful to those shareholders who purchased our Series B Preferred Stock for their contribution and support. We believe that the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock will consolidate and align the interests of our stockholders and investors moving forward."

Stock Repurchase Program

On April 26, 2017, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an extension of the Company's common stock repurchase program for an additional six months commencing May 10, 2017.  Any purchases under the repurchase program will be made from time to time in the open market in accordance with applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations.  The timing and amount of any stock repurchases will be determined by the Company's management based on its evaluation of market conditions, regulatory requirements and other corporate considerations.  Since the commencement of the stock repurchase program in May 2016, the Company has repurchased a total of 21,300 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $30,000 as of September 30, 2017.  All repurchased shares are held by the Company as treasury stock.  No shares of common stock were repurchased during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
