\nThe First Bancorp (Nasdaq: FNLC), parent company of First National Bank, today announced operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Unaudited net income for the period was $8.0 million representing diluted earnings per share of $0.72, as compared to net income of $9.7 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.88 in the first quarter of 2022. Non-recurring revenues in the first quarter of 2022, including Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) fees and debit card program incentives, accounted for $1.4 million of the year-to-year change, or $0.13 per diluted share, and a decrease in mortgage banking revenue, another $306,000, or $0.03 per share. Removing these effects, net income was approximately flat versus the prior year period. Earnings were down from the fourth quarter of 2022 when the Company reported net income of $9.2 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.83. The primary change quarter-to-quarter was a decline in net interest income of $2.0 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, the result of margin pressure on the funding side of the balance sheet. Rate driven competition for local deposits and rising costs for wholesale funding were the primary factors behind the margin pressure experienced in the period.<\/p>\n
\n“The FDIC’s well publicized closure and subsequent sale of several banks in March has cast a spotlight on our industry and resulted in market turbulence,” commented Tony C. McKim, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “The First Bancorp and First National Bank are well positioned to withstand these disruptions. We are well-capitalized, with exceptional asset quality, and a funding base that is stable and diverse.”<\/p>\n
\nMr. McKim continued, “Contrary to national data showing deposits leaving the banking system, our total deposits increased in the first quarter, and we have not had to rely upon borrowings outside of the normal course of business. The Bank’s uninsured deposits were estimated at just 16.4% of total deposits as of March 31, 2023, with sources of immediately available liquidity sufficient to cover the entire uninsured total. In addition, with adoption of the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) methodology this quarter, our Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) has increased to 1.18% of total loans, adding further strength to our balance sheet as we head into potential economic uncertainty.”<\/p>\n
\nTurning to the first quarter’s results, Mr. McKim remarked \u201cThe First Bancorp achieved solid operating results for the first three months of 2023, though down from the levels posted over the past several quarters. Our decrease in earnings from the fourth quarter is the result of a lower net interest margin due to increased funding costs. We began to experience increased funding cost pressure late in the fourth quarter of 2022, and that trend has continued with higher costs year-to-date for both local and wholesale deposits. Our net interest margin was 2.78% for the first quarter of 2023, down from the PPP aided 3.24% a year ago, and down from 3.09% in the fourth quarter of 2022. Earning asset growth helped to partially offset the effects of margin contraction and this growth was focused in the loan portfolio, which has grown $68.2 million year-to-date, an annualized rate of 14.4%. First quarter growth was centered in commercial loans, commercial real estate loans and loans secured by one-to-four family residential real estate. Our pipeline of new loans in process continues to be healthy.”<\/p>\n
\nMr. McKim continued, “Non-interest income was also under pressure in the first quarter, down 15.7% compared to a year ago, and down 7.2% from the fourth quarter of 2022. Compared to a year ago, mortgage banking revenues fell $306,000 and debit card revenue fell $245,000; compared to the fourth quarter of 2022, debit card revenue fell $279,000. Debit card interchange revenue has been reasonably steady, and the quarterly revenue changes are mostly attributable to the timing of annual incentive payments. Operating expenses remain controlled, increasing a modest 1.9% from a year ago and decreasing 7.4% from the fourth quarter of 2022. Our efficiency ratio for the quarter was 49.98%, up from 45.42% for the same period a year ago, and from 48.83% in the fourth quarter of 2022.”<\/p>\n
FIRST QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n FINANCIAL CONDITION<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n \nTotal assets at March 31, 2023, were $2.81 billion, up $72.6 million in the first quarter and up $263.2 million from a year ago. Earning assets increased $68.9 million during the quarter comprised primarily of an increase in loans of $68.2 million. As compared to March 31, 2022, earning assets have increased by $248.5 million centered in loan growth of $275.5 million, a decrease in the carrying value of investments of $11.6 million, and a reduction in interest earning cash balances of $15.7 million.<\/p>\n \nLoan growth in the first quarter was concentrated in the commercial and residential portfolios. Commercial loans increased by $50.6 million during the period, led by increases in owner-occupied commercial real estate of $28.6 million, non-owner occupied commercial real estate of $20.8 million and commercial & industrial loans of $20.3 million; commercial construction balances decreased by $21.2 million as a number of projects converted to permanent financing. Residential term loans increased by $9.4 million in the first quarter while residential construction loans increased by $2.8 million.<\/p>\n \nTotal deposits at March 31, 2023 were $2.47 billion, up $87.8 million during the quarter, and up $308.2 million or 14.3% from March 31, 2022. Certificates of deposit increased by $142.0 million in the first quarter, while low-cost deposits decreased by $55.7 million, centered in Demand and Savings account balances. Borrowings decreased by $19.6 million. The Bank typically experiences a modest level of local deposit outflow annually in the first quarter based upon seasonal factors. Local deposits as of March 31, 2023 were down 1.75% from 2022 year-end, well within a normal range.<\/p>\n \nThe Company\u2019s regulatory capital position remained strong as of March 31, 2023, with an estimated total risk-based capital ratio of 13.81%, in line with the total capital ratio of 13.58% as of December 31, 2022, and 14.08% as of March 31, 2022. The Company adopted ASC 326, the CECL standard, in the first quarter of 2023, incurring a retained earnings adjustment of $6.3 million. This adjustment resulted in the Company’s leverage capital ratio decreasing to an estimated 8.75% as of March 31, 2023 from the 9.01% and 8.96% reported as of December 31, 2022, and as of March 31, 2022, respectively. The Company’s tangible book value per share after CECL adjustment, which includes unrealized losses on available for sale securities, was $17.84 as of March 31, 2023, down modestly from $17.93 at December 31, 2022. The Tangible Common Equity ratio was 7.11% as of March 31, 2023, down from 7.31% as of December 31, 2022, with the period-to-period change based mostly in the CECL adjustment.<\/p>\n ASSET QUALITY & PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n \nAsset quality continues to be very strong. As of March 31, 2023, the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was 0.06%, level with December 31, 2022, and down from 0.20% at March 31, 2022. Net charge-offs year-to-date in 2023 were an annualized 0.01% of total loans, as compared to 0.03% in 2022. Past due loans were 0.10% of total loans as of March 31, 2023, in line with 0.08% of total loans at December 31, 2022, and improved from 0.25% as of March 31, 2022.<\/p>\n \nThe provision for credit losses totaled $550,000 in the first quarter of 2023 under CECL methodology, compared with $450,000 for the same period in 2022 under the incurred loss method. The Company has modeled its ACL using a discounted cash flow approach applied to each segment of the loan portfolio. The ACL stood at 1.18% of total loans and 1,303% of non-performing loans as of March 31, 2023, as compared to an allowance for loan losses of 0.87% of total loans and 953% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2022, and 0.92% of total loans and 312% of non-performing loans as of March 31, 2022.<\/p>\n OPERATING RESULTS – First Quarter of 2023 vs. Fourth Quarter of 2022<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n \nNet Income for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $8.0 million, a decrease of $1.2 million or 13.3% from the three months ended December 31, 2022. On a PTPP (non-GAAP) basis, net income for the period was $10.2 million, down $1.4 million or 12.3%.

accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (\u201cGAAP\u201d). Management uses these \u201cnon-GAAP\u201d measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance (including for purposes of determining the compensation of certain executive officers and other Company employees) and believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods and with other financial institutions, as well as demonstrating the effects of significant gains and charges in the current period, in light of the disclosure practices employed by many other publicly-traded financial institutions. The Company believes that a meaningful analysis of its financial performance requires an understanding of the factors underlying that performance. Management believes that investors may use these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze financial performance without the impact of unusual items that may obscure trends in the Company’s underlying performance. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.<\/p>\n \nIn several places net interest income is calculated on a fully tax-equivalent basis. Specifically included in interest income was tax-exempt interest income from certain investment securities and loans. An amount equal to the tax benefit derived from this tax-exempt income has been added back to the interest income total which, as adjusted, increased net interest income accordingly. Management believes the disclosure of tax-equivalent net interest income information improves the clarity of financial analysis, and is particularly useful to investors in understanding and evaluating the changes and trends in the Company’s results of operations. Other financial institutions commonly present net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis. This adjustment is considered helpful in the comparison of one financial institution’s net interest income to that of another institution, as each will have a different proportion of tax-exempt interest from its earning assets. Moreover, net interest income is a component of a second financial measure commonly used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net interest income to average earning assets. For purposes of this measure as well, other financial institutions generally use tax-equivalent net interest income to provide a better basis of comparison from institution to institution. The Company follows these practices.<\/p>\n \nThe following table provides a reconciliation of tax-equivalent financial information to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. A 21.0% tax rate was used in both 2023 and 2022.<\/p>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n For the quarters ended<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n In thousands of dollars<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n March 31, 2023<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \nDecember 31, 2022<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \nMarch 31, 2022<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \nNet interest income as presented<\/p>\n<\/td>\n $<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n 17,475<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n19,484<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n18,620<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \nEffect of tax-exempt income<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n 620<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n607<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n557<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \nNet interest income, tax equivalent<\/p>\n<\/td>\n $<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n 18,095<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n20,091<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n \n19,177<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n \nThe Company presents its efficiency ratio using non-GAAP information which is most commonly used by financial institutions. The GAAP-based efficiency ratio is non-interest expenses divided by net interest income plus non-interest income from the Consolidated Statements of Income. The non-GAAP efficiency ratio excludes securities losses and other-than-temporary impairment charges from non-interest expenses, excludes securities gains from non-interest income, and adds the tax-equivalent adjustment to net interest income.

The difference between these two measures is the Company’s intangible assets, specifically goodwill from prior acquisitions. Management, banking regulators and many stock analysts use the tangible common equity ratio and the tangible book value per common share in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the use of the purchase accounting method in accounting for mergers and acquisitions.
