National Capital Bancorp, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter Earnings

National Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTC Pink: NACB), the holding company for The National Capital Bank of Washington (“NCB” or the “Bank"), reported net income of $1,355,000, or $4.71 per common share, for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to net income of $1,323,000 or $4.62 per common share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company reported net income of $4,588,000, or $15.98 per share, compared to $4,646,000, or $16.23 for the year ended December 31, 2021. Solid organic loan growth during the current year has helped to offset the prior year’s favorable impact from the Company’s active role in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). In addition, the Company has benefitted from the interest rate increases instituted this year by the Federal Reserve Bank. Non-interest income declined as the Company recorded a $393,000 loss on the sale of securities in the fourth quarter of 2022 in an attempt to position the portfolio for better performance in 2023.

Total assets decreased year-over-year to $644,156,000 on December 31, 2022, compared to $734,709,000 on December 31, 2021. Total loans of $425,149,000 on December 31, 2022, increased by $7.4 million during the quarter and have increased from $396,453,000 the year before. Organic loan growth in 2022 was $51 million and was partially offset by PPP loan forgiveness received during the year. The remaining combined outstanding balance of PPP loans was $0.5 million on December 31, 2022, compared with a balance of $23 million on December 31, 2021. Total deposits decreased during the quarter by $26 million to $571,751,000 on December 31, 2022, and have decreased from $657,116,000 the year before. December 31, 2021, deposits included a year-end client deposit of $55 million which was transferred out in January 2022. The Company’s net interest margin improved to 3.51% during the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 3.08% in the third quarter of 2022 and 3.10% in the fourth quarter of 2021. The favorable impact from the current-year interest rate increases on variable-rate loans, interest-bearing cash balances and for newly originated loans has helped to soften the negative impact of significantly reduced PPP fee accretion during the fourth quarter of 2022 in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2021.

Total shareholders’ equity decreased to $48,328,000 on December 31, 2022, from $54,854,000 a year ago due to the change in market valuation of the investment portfolio in a rising rate environment, and partially offset by retained earnings for the past twelve months. In order to partially mitigate the impact of higher interest rates on the valuation of the investment portfolio, the Bank transferred approximately $80 million of securities during the first quarter of 2022 to a held-to-maturity category which is valued at amortized cost rather than at fair market value. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the return on average assets and return on average equity was 0.67% and 9.29%, respectively.

Jimmy Olevson, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank said, “The fourth quarter was positive in terms of commercial loan growth, specifically those credit facilities with variable rates. Additionally, we were pleased with the improvement in the quarter’s net interest margin and overall net income as we continued to replace forgiven PPP loans with new commercial relationships.” Olevson continued, “We also completed two exciting initiatives in the fourth quarter. The first being the launch of Connections, a CRM platform through our core banking partner, FIS®. We are beginning to see the enhanced client experience and internal efficiencies this product offers and will continue to focus on its usage. We also launched our new website, www.NationalCapitalBank.bank. The new website has a refreshed look while also offering the added security of having a .BANK web address.”

The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors has declared a dividend of $0.60 per share for shareholders of record as of February 14, 2023. The dividend payout of $172,380.00 on 287,300 shares is payable February 28, 2023.
