Clean Power Increases Its Investment in PowerTap to 94.5%

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Clean Power Capital Corp. (CSE: MOVE)(FWB: 2K6)(OTC: MOTNF) (“Clean Power” or the “Company” or “MOVE”) is pleased to announce that it has increased its investment in PowerTap Hydrogen Fueling Corp. (“PowerTap”) by acquiring an additional 4.5% equity interest in PowerTap. As previously announced, the Company initially invested in PowerTap on October 27, 2020 by acquiring a 90% equity interest. With the latest investment, Clean Power has increased its equity interest in PowerTap to 94.5%.

PowerTap is leading the charge to build out cost-effective hydrogen fueling infrastructure through its environmentally friendly intellectual property, product design for the modularized and lowest tier production cost of hydrogen and launch plan. PowerTap technology-based hydrogen fueling stations are already located in private enterprises and public stations (near LAX airport) in California, Texas, Massachusetts, and Maryland. Additional information about PowerTap may be found at its website at: https://www.powertapfuels.com.

Since Clean Power’s intial investment, PowerTap has been developing its hydrogen fueling station network in stages, consisting of engineering & design; ongoing development of PowerTap 3.0; and permitting and site preparation, as updated in past news releases. Most recently, PowerTap signed a definitive agreement with Humboldt Petroleum, Inc., Peninsula Petroleum, LLC, and Colvin Oil I LLC (dba GP Energy), collectively referred to as “the Andretti Group” to locate PowerTap’s hydrogen station technology at select Andretti Group properties. Under the terms of definitive agreement, the Andretti Group will further help market PowerTap’s technology to third-party chain retailers, major oil companies and independent stations through the Andrettis’ deep network of automotive industry connections. See the Company’s news release dated January 26, 2021 for further details on the definitive agreement with the Andretti Group.

Clean Power’s investments in PowerTap aligns well with the energy industry focusing on transitioning more into hydrogen-based energy as demonstrated by the USA President Biden’s most recent executive orders to drive the USA to a clean energy future by achieving a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035 and putting the USA on an irreversible path to a net-zero economy by 20501; and Canada’s recently announced hydrogen strategy, which sets sets an ambitious framework to cement hydrogen as a key part of Canada’s path to net-zero carbon emissions by 20502.

Taking advantage of the energy industry’s momentum towards investments in the development of hydrogen-based technology and the anticipated increase in demand for hydrogen-based fuel, the investment in PowerTap takes advantage of favourable market conditions and is aligned with the Company’s investment policy, which was previously amended and restated to include the renewable energy sector as an area of focus for the Company. The amended and restated investment policy is available for review on the Company’s website at https://cleanpower.capital/ and will be tabled for ratification at the Company’s next annual general meeting of shareholders on March 15, 2021.

After the initial investment to acquire 90% of PowerTap, the Company completed this follow-on investment to increase Clean Power’s investment in PowerTap to 94.5%. The consideration paid to the vendors for the additional 4.5% of PowerTap consisted of an aggregate of 18,000,000 common shares in the capital of the Company (the “Consideration Shares”) at a deemed value of $2.72 per Consideration Share. The vendors are arm’s-length to one another and none of whom, individually holds 10% or more of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company on a non-diluted basis. The issuance of the Consideration Shares relied on the accredited investor exemption under Section 2.3 of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions and therefore the Consideration Shares are subject to a four month and one day hold period.

Bogota Financial Corp. Reports Results for the Three and Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2020

Bogota Financial Corp. Reports Results for the Three and Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2020

TEANECK, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Bogota Financial Corp. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BSBK), the holding company for Bogota Savings Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income for the three months ended December 31, 2020 of $1.0 million, compared to net income of $787,000 for the comparable prior year period. The Company reported net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 of $2.1 million compared to a net income of $2.4 million for the prior year. The Company contributed cash and stock with a value of $2.9 million ($2.1 million after-tax) to the Bogota Charitable Foundation during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. Also, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 the Company had expenses of $168,000 related to its proposed merger with Gibraltar Bank (“Gibraltar”). Without the contribution to the charitable foundation and merger expenses, net income would have been $4.3 million.

On January 15, 2020, the Company became the holding company for the Bank when it completed the reorganization of the Bank into a two-tier mutual holding company form of organization. In connection with the reorganization, the Company sold 5,657,735 shares of common stock at a price of $10 per share, for gross proceeds of $56.6 million. The Company also issued 263,150 shares of common stock and $250,000 in cash to Bogota Savings Bank Charitable Foundation, Inc., and issued 7,236,640 shares of common stock to Bogota Financial, MHC, its New Jersey-chartered mutual holding company.

On September 3, 2020 the Bank and Gibraltar executed a merger agreement pursuant to which Gibraltar will merge with and into the Bank. On January 25, 2021, the Bank and Gibraltar Bank announced that all regulatory approvals relating to the merger have been received. Additionally, Gibraltar’s members approved the transaction at a special meeting of members on January 20, 2021. The merger is targeted to close on or about February 28, 2021 with a systems conversion scheduled for August 16, 2021.

The merger is expected to increase the Bank’s consolidated assets to approximately $851.0 million by the end of the first quarter of 2021 and double its branch network. Along with the increased asset size and additional banking branches, the acquisition gives the Company the ability to sell additional residential loans, which will increase non-interest income and lessen our interest rate risk. Also, in second quarter of 2021, the Bank will be opening a new branch in Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey.

Other Financial Highlights:

  • Total assets decreased $25.7 million, or 3.3%, to $740.9 million from $766.6 million at December 31, 2019. Unfilled subscriptions of $41.5 million from the stock offering were returned to subscribers in January 2020 following the completion of the stock offering. Excluding these funds from the unfilled subscriptions, total assets increased by 2.1% during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 from $725.1 million at December 31, 2019.
  • Net loans increased $20.5 million, or 3.8%, to $557.7 million at December 31, 2020 from $537.2 million at December 31, 2019.
  • Total deposits were $502.0 million, increasing $4.2 million, or 0.8%, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.
  • Return on average assets was 0.28% for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2020 compared to 0.36% for the corresponding period of 2019. Without the charitable foundation contribution, the return on average assets would have been 0.59% for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2020.
  • Return on average equity was 1.66% for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2020 compared to 3.30% for the same period of 2019. Without the charitable foundation contribution, the return on average equity would have been 3.46% for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2020.

COVID

As a qualified Small Business Administration lender, we were automatically authorized to originate loans under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). As of December 31, 2020, we have received and processed 113 PPP applications totaling approximately $10.5 million and no loans have been forgiven. The Company will be participating in the second round of PPP loans during the first quarter of 2021.

We are also providing assistance to individuals and small business clients directly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic by allowing borrowers to modify their loans. Through December 31, 2020, the Company granted 168 loan modifications totaling $66.6 million, which represented 11.9% of the total loan portfolio, allowing customers who were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic to defer principal and/or interest payments. Of the 168 loans to which loan modifications were granted only six loans had requested additional deferrals as of December 31, 2020. These six loans represented $993,000, or 0.2%, of net loans and all the loans are within the one to four family residential real estate portfolio.

These short-term loan modifications are treated in accordance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act and will not be treated as troubled debt restructurings during the short-term modification period if the loan was not in arrears at December 31, 2019. Furthermore, these loans will continue to accrue interest. Details with respect to actual loan modifications are as follows:

Joseph Coccaro, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “During the first quarter we successfully converted the Bank to a two-tier mutual holding company structure. We are pleased with our continued strategy to expand our loan portfolio and the positive overall impacts of doing so on assets and income. We continue our efforts to expand our market presence, improve and expand our technology platform and offerings and manage our interest rate risk.”

Mr. Coccaro further stated, “We are pleased with our fourth quarter and full year 2020 results. Without the contribution to the charitable foundation and merger expenses the Company would have earned $1.6 million or 60.3%, more than last year even though this was during uncertain times due to the pandemic. The economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations was not material during 2020 and we have seen loan deferral requests go from 172 loan customers down to six loan customers still requesting deferrals as of December 31, 2020. Our multi-family pipeline continues to expand, with the primary focus on high quality loans that demonstrate sustainable cash flow and verifiable liquidity to be able to endure continued economic stress. Our credit quality remains strong and non-performing and criticized assets have remained very low.”

Income Statement Analysis

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, net interest income increased $812,000, or 28.8%, to $3.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020. During the same period, our net interest margin increased from 1.60% to 2.03%, while the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities increased 2.1% to 122.54%. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, net interest income increased $2.4 million, or 21.7%, to $13.6 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 there was a 20-basis point increase in net interest margin to 1.93%, while the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities improved 8.7% to 122.0%. The increase in net interest margin during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2020 was mostly due to the higher ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities and lower cost of funds.

We recorded a credit to our provision for loan losses of $75,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2020 compared to no provision for loan losses during the same period last year. The $25.0 million reduction in residential loans during the fourth quarter of 2020 was the main reason for the decrease in loan losses. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $200,000 for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2020, compared to no provision for loan losses for the same period last year. Higher commercial real estate loan balances and increased risks factors associated with COVID-19 were the reasons for the provision.

Non-interest income was $109,000 for the three months December 30, 2020, a decrease of $23,000, or 17.4%, compared to $131,000 in the prior year period. For the twelve-months ended December 31, 2020, non-interest income totaled $1.1 million, an increase of $562,000, or 103.5%, from the prior year period. Death benefit proceeds received on our investment in bank owned life insurance was the primary reason for the increase during the twelve-month period.

For the three months ended December 31, 2020, non-interest expenses increased $497,000 to $2.4 million, over the comparable 2019 period. Professional fees increased $143,000, or 179.6%, due to additional expense associated with becoming a public company and expenses related to the proposed merger with Gibraltar. Salaries and employee benefits increased $181,000, or 15.6%, attributable to increased benefits and employee stock ownership plan expenses. Data processing expense increased $122,000, or 124.7% due to invoice credits during 2019 that did not reoccur in 2020. The increase of all other general operating expenses was mainly due to increased FDIC insurance expense due to credits being utilized last year, an increase in director fees. Advertising expense decreased $31,000, or 40.4%, due to the reduction of advertising during the height of the COVID-19 crisis.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, non-interest expenses increased $3.6 million, or 42.3%, to $12.0 million, over 2019. Expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 included a $2.9 million contribution to the Bogota Charitable Foundation that was formed during the reorganization of the Bank into a two-tier mutual holding company form of organization. Data processing costs decreased $205,000, or 22.3%, due to $360,000 in de-conversion expenses in 2019 in connection with the Bank’s data processing conversion. Advertising expense decreased $84,000, or 32.2%, due to the reduction of advertising during the height of the COVID crisis. Excluding the contribution to the charitable foundation in 2020 and the de-conversion expense in 2019, non-interest expenses increased $322,000 to $9.1 million compared to the same period last year. The increase of other general operating expenses was mainly due to increases in professional fees associated with the expense of becoming a public company and expenses related to the proposed merger with Gibraltar.

Balance Sheet Analysis

Total assets were $740.9 million at December 31, 2020, representing a decrease of $25.7 million, or 3.3%, from December 31, 2019. Cash and due from banks decreased $47.5 million during the period primarily because of $41.5 million in offering subscriptions that were refunded due to the oversubscription of the stock offering. Net loans increased $20.5 million or 3.8%, due to new production of $179.3 million, consisting of a relatively equal mix of all real estate loans and commercial loans, which was partially offset by $158.8 million in repayments. Securities available for sale decreased $1.9 million mostly due to maturities in corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities which were not replaced.

Delinquent loans increased $318,000, or 56.0%, during the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2020, finishing at $887,000 or 0.2% of total loans. During the same timeframe, non-performing assets increased $78,000, or 13.2%, to $668,000 due to the addition of one loan and were 0.09% of total assets at December 31, 2020. Our allowance for loan losses was 0.40% of total loans and 323.60% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2020.

Total liabilities decreased $79.2 million, or 11.4%, to $612.5 million mainly due to $90.4 million in gross subscriptions that was either converted to common stock or refunded due to the oversubscription of the stock offering. Deposits increased $4.2 million, or 0.8%, due to increases in non-interest deposits for new loan customer accounts partially offset by decreases in interest bearing deposits. Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $7.2 million, or 7.4%, as borrowings were available at lower rates than deposits.

Stockholders’ equity increased $53.5 million to $128.5 million, primarily due $54.6 million of net proceeds raised in the stock offering. At December 31, 2020, the Company’s ratio of average stockholders’ equity-to-total assets was 16.97%, compared to 10.96% at December 31, 2019.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Company was formed to serve as the mid-tier stock holding company for the Bank in connection with the reorganization of the Bank and its mutual holding company, Bogota Financial, MHC, into the two-tier mutual holding company structure.

Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements and other financial information at and for the 2019 periods relate solely to the consolidated financial results of the Bank.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains certain forward-looking statements about the Company and the Bank. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding anticipated future events and can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” and “intend” or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” or “may.” Forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results include increased competitive pressures, changes in the interest rate environment, general economic conditions or conditions within the securities markets, and legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect the business in which the Company and the Bank are engaged.

Further, given its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including when the coronavirus can be controlled and abated and whether the gradual reopening of businesses will result in a meaningful increase in economic activity. As the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, we could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations: demand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income; if the economy is unable to substantially reopen or remain open, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures may increase, resulting in increased charges and reduced income; collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase; our allowance for loan losses may have to be increased if borrowers experience financial difficulties, which will adversely affect our net income; the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us. As the result of the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate to near 0%, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread and reducing net income. Our cyber security risks are increased as the result of an increase in the number of employees working remotely; and FDIC premiums may increase if the agency experience additional resolution costs.

The Company undertakes no obligation to revise these forward-looking statements or to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release.
