MAGYAR BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES FISCAL FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR END

FINANCIAL RESULTS, DECLARES INCREASED QUARTERLY DIVIDEND

 

New Brunswick, New Jersey, October 30, 2023 – Magyar Bancorp (NASDAQ: MGYR) (the “Company”), parent company of Magyar Bank, reported today the results of its operations for the three months and fiscal year ended September 30, 2023.

 

The Company reported $2,185,000 in net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with net income of $2,430,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The Company also reported net income of $7,709,000 for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared with $7,919,000 for the year ended September 30, 2022.

 

The Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.34 and $1.20 for the three months and year ended September 30, 2023, compared with basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months and year ended September 30, 2022 of $0.36 and $1.17, respectively.

 

The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share, which will be paid on November 24, 2023 to stockholders of record as of November 9, 2023.

 

“We are very pleased to report strong earnings for our full fiscal year”, stated John Fitzgerald, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While the inverted yield curve presented a challenging environment for the banking industry, compressing margins and increasing competition for deposits, Magyar was able to minimize its impact through balanced loan and deposit growth. This balanced growth resulted in a decline in Magyar’s loan-to-deposit ratio to 92.4% at September 30, 2023 from 94.2% one year earlier, providing room for continued loan growth to help offset rising funding costs.”

 

Mr. Fitzgerald continued, “As we look ahead to our next fiscal year, inflation and its impact on the economy will need to be closely monitored, but we are encouraged to see our loan pipeline remain strong and will continue maintaining strong underwriting standards.”

 

Results of Operations

 

Net income decreased $245,000, or 10.1%, to $2.2 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2023 from $2.4 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022 from lower net interest and dividend income and higher non-interest expense. Net income decreased $210,000, or 2.7%, to $7.7 million during the year ended September 30, 2023 compared with $7.9 million for the year ended September 30, 2022 from higher non-interest expenses, partially offset by higher net interest and dividend income.

 

 

 

Net interest and dividend income decreased $233,000, or 3.2%, to $7.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from $7.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decline was attributable to a 47 basis point decrease in the Company’s net interest margin to 3.36% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to 3.83% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

 

Interest and dividend income increased $2.5 million, or 30.8%, to $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from $8.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $75.4 million, or 10.0%, to $826.1 million, while the yield on such assets increased 81 basis points to 5.10% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with 4.29% for the prior year period. The increase in yield on the Company’s assets was attributable to higher market interest rates between periods.

 

Interest expense increased $2.7 million, or 312.1%, to $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from $876,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $65.9 million, or 13.3%, between the two periods while the cost of such liabilities increased 185 basis points to 2.55% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with 0.70% for the prior year period. Higher market interest rates were primarily responsible for the rise in the cost of the Company’s interest-bearing liabilities.

 

During the year ended September 30, 2023, net interest and dividend income increased $715,000, or 2.6%, to $27.7 million compared with $27.0 million for the year ended September 30, 2022. Growth in interest-earning assets more than offset the compression in the Company’s net interest margin from the inverted yield curve during the year.

 

The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $43.7 million, or 5.8%, to $791.4 million from $747.7 million, while the yield on such assets increased 86 basis points to 4.81% for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared with the prior year. Interest and dividend income increased $8.6 million, or 29.0%, to $38.1 million for the year ended September 30, 2023 from $29.5 million for the year ended September 30, 2022. The increase in yield on the Company’s assets was attributable to higher market interest rates. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in U.S. Department of the Treasury Paycheck Protection Program loan fees. The Company did not record any such fees during the year ended September 30, 2023 compared with $827,000 for the year ended September 30, 2022.

 

Interest expense increased $7.8 million, or 316.0%, to $10.3 million for the year ended September 30, 2023 from $2.5 million for the year ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $38.4 million, or 7.8%, between the two periods while the cost of such liabilities increased 145 basis points to 1.96% for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared with 0.51% for the prior year. Higher market interest rates were primarily responsible for the rise in the cost of the Company’s interest-bearing liabilities for the year ended September 30, 2023.

 

The Company reversed $51,000 in loan loss provisions during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with $72,000 of reversals during the three months ended September 30, 2022. Net repayments in commercial real estate loans during the current quarter as well as improving economic data resulted in the provision release for the three months ended September 30, 2023. There were no charge-offs and $3,000 in loan recoveries for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with no loan charge-offs or recoveries for the prior year period. The provision for loan losses increased $77,000 to $381,000 for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared to $304,000 for the year ended September 30, 2022. There were $488,000 in loan charge-offs and $4,000 in loan recoveries for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared with no loan charge-offs and $54,000 in loan recoveries for the year ended September 30, 2022.

 

 

 

Non-interest income increased $15,000, or 1.8%, to $832,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with $817,000 for the prior year period. The increase was primarily from service charges, partially offset by lower gains on the sales of loans. The Company’s service charge income increased $308,000, or 93.9%, to $636,000 compared with $328,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2022 from higher commercial loan prepayment fees received during the current quarter. Offsetting this increase were lower gains from the sale of SBA loans, which declined $290,000, or 78.2% to $81,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with $371,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2022 due to a reduction in the volume of loans sold.

 

Non-interest income decreased $33,000, or 1.2%, to $2.7 million during the year ended September 30, 2023 compared with the year ended September 30, 2022. The Company’s service charge income increased $404,000, or 34.0%, to $1.6 million compared with $1.2 million for the prior year from higher commercial loan prepayment fees received during the current year. Offsetting this increase were lower gains from the sale of SBA loans, which declined $360,000, or 38.9%, to $565,000 during the year ended September 30, 2023 compared with $925,000 during the year ended September 30, 2022 during the three months ended September 30, 2022 due to a reduction in the volume of loans sold.

 

Non-interest expenses increased $332,000, or 7.1%, to $5.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 from $4.7 million compared with the prior year period due to higher compensation, occupancy, and FDIC deposit insurance premium expenses. Compensation and benefit expense increased $211,000, or 7.2%, to $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared with $2.9 million for the prior year period. The increase was due to stock award and stock option expenses related to the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan and increased director fees resulting from the addition of three new directors on September 22, 2022. Occupancy expenses increased $69,000, or 9.1%, to $831,000 from improvements to the Company’s branch locations as well as the elimination of off-site records previously held in storage. Deposit insurance premiums increased $41,000, or 74.5%, from higher insurance assessment rates implemented by the FDIC for all insured institutions effective January 1, 2023.

 

During the year ended September 30, 2023, non-interest expenses increased $1.0 million, or 5.7%, to $19.3 million compared to $18.3 million for the year ended September 30, 2022 due primarily to higher compensation and benefit expense, which increased $888,000, or 8.1%. Stock award and stock option expenses related to the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan resulted in a $658,000 increase in compensation expense. The increase was also attributable to higher director fees, which increased $149,000 for the addition of three new Directors. In addition, deposit insurance premiums increased $125,000, or 58.1%, to $340,000 from the higher FDIC insurance assessment rates for the year ended September 30, 2023.

During the year ended September 30, 2023, total assets increased $108.7 million, or 13.6%, to $907.3 million compared with $798.6 million for the prior year period.

Cash and interest-earning deposits with banks increased $50.1 million, or 223.7% to $72.5 million at September 30, 2023 from $22.4 million at June 30, 2023 from deposit inflows and net repayments in the Company’s loans receivable.

Total loans receivable decreased $4.3 million, or 0.6%, during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 but have increased $69.3 million, or 11.2%, to $698.2 million during the year at September 30, 2023 from $628.9 million at September 30, 2022. The growth for the year occurred in commercial real estate loans, which increased $46.3 million, or 13.5%, to $389.1 million, in one-to four-family residential mortgage loans (including home equity lines of credit), which increased $21.6 million, or 9.3%, to $254.7 million, and in construction loans, which increased $6.6 million, or 43.5%, to $21.9 million.

During the quarter our total non-performing loans increased $1.5 million, or 42.8%, to $5.1 million at September 30, 2023 from $3.6 million at June 30, 2023. The increase resulted from two residential mortgage loans totaling $386,000 and one land acquisition loan totaling $1.7 million, partially offset by the full repayment of one commercial real estate loan totaling $388,000 and the one residential mortgage loan totaling $171,000 that resumed making payments. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.73% at September 30, 2023 compared to 0.45% at September 30, 2022.

 

The allowance for loan losses decreased by $103,000 during the year ended September 30, 2023 to $8.3 million compared with $8.4 million for the prior year. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans decreased to 163.8% at September 30, 2023 compared with 297.5% at September 30, 2022. At September 30, 2023 our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.19%, compared with 1.34% at September 30, 2022.

 

Total deposits increased $62.0 million, or 8.9%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $755.5 million. The Bank added a new municipal depositor relationship during the quarter, representing $50.9 million of deposits at September 30, 2023. Also contributing to the increase was the return of seasonal deposit outflows that were temporarily withdrawn during the June quarter.

 

Total deposits increased $87.7 million, or 13.1%, during the year ended September 30, 2023. The growth in deposits during the year occurred in money market account balances, which increased $62.7 million, or 28.2%, to $284.9 million, in certificates of deposit (including individual retirement accounts) which increased $22.1 million, or 26.7%, to $104.7 million, in interest-bearing checking account balances, which increased $16.5 million, or 16.8% to $115.2 million, and in non-interest checking account balances, which increased $6.1 million, or 3.4%, to $188.5 million. Offsetting these increases was a decline in savings account balances, which decreased $19.7 million, or 24.1%, to $62.2 million.

 

Included in the Company’s total deposits was an estimated $109.3 million that was not collateralized and exceeded the FDIC’s insurance coverage limit of $250,000 at September 30, 2023 compared to $129.4 million at September 30, 2022.

 

Borrowings decreased $16.0 million, or 35.2%, to $29.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Total equity increased $6.3 million, or 6.4%, to $104.8 million at September 30, 2023 from $98.5 million at September 30, 2022. The increase was attributable to the Company’s net income from operations totaling $7.7 million, partially offset by $1.3 million in dividends paid and $1.2 million in share repurchases. The Company’s book value per share increased to $15.70 at September 30, 2023 from $14.60 at September 30, 2022.
