Lance A. Sellers, President and Chief Executive Officer, attributed the decrease in fourth quarter net earnings toa decrease in net interest income, which was partially offset by a decrease in the provision for credit losses, an increase in non-interest income and a decrease in non-interest expense, compared to the prior year period, as discussed below. </p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Net interest income was $13.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $15.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in net interest income is due to a $4.7 million increase in interest expense, partially offset by a $2.7 million increase in interest income. The increase in interest income is due to a $2.5 million increase in interest income and fees on loans and a $255,000 increase in interest income on investment securities,which were partially offset by a $60,000 decrease in interest income on balances due from banks. The increase in interest income and fees on loans is primarily due to an increase in total loans and rate increases by the Federal Reserve. The increase in interest income on investment securities is primarily due to higher yields on securities purchased during the fourth quarter of 2022. The decrease in interest income on balances due from banks is primarily due to a reduction in balances outstanding. The increase in interest expense is primarily due to an increase in time deposits and an increase in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income after the provision for credit losses was $12.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $14.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The provision for credit losses for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $405,000, compared to $583,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2022.The decrease in the provision for credit losses is primarily attributable to a reduction in reserves on unfunded loan commitments, which was partially offset by an increase in reserves on loans, driven by an increase in loan balances, as well as adjustments to reserves due to economic conditions and other factors at December 31, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; TEXT-INDENT: 0px;text-align:center;">1</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td><p style='page-break-after: always'></p></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Non-interest income was $6.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022.&nbsp;&nbsp;The increase in non-interest income is primarily attributable to a $116,000 increase in appraisal management fee income due to an increase in appraisal volume and a $341,000 increase in miscellaneous non-interest income due to an increase in deferred compensation income due to an increase in valuations for the assets in the deferred compensation plan.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Non-interest expense was $14.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $15.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022.&nbsp;&nbsp;The decrease in non-interest expense is primarily attributable to a $529,000 decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense primarily due to a reduction in supplemental retirement plan expense and a $183,000 decrease in occupancy expense primarily due to a reduction in rental expense primarily due to a branch lease termination in December 2022, which were partially offset by a $195,000 increase in other non-interest expenses due to an increase in deferred compensation expense due to an increase in valuations for the assets in the deferred compensation plan.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Net earnings were $15.5 million or $2.87 per share and $2.77 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $16.1 million or $2.94 per share and $2.85 per diluted share for the prior year.

The increase in net interest income is due to a $17.4 million increase in interest income, partially offset by a $13.8 million increase in interest expense. The increase in interest income is due to a $12.4 million increase in interest income and fees on loans and a $5.0 million increase in interest income on investment securities. The increase in interest income and fees on loans is primarily due to an increase in total loans and rate increases by the Federal Reserve, partially offset by a $948,000 decrease in fee income on SBA PPP loans. The increase in interest income on investment securities is primarily due to higher yields on securities purchased during the third and fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in interest expense is primarily due to an increase in time deposits and an increase in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income after the provision for credit losses was $53.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $49.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The provision for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $1.6 million, compared to $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in the provision for credit losses is primarily attributable to an increase in reserves on loans, driven by an increase in loan balances, as well as adjustments to reserves due to economic conditions and other factors at December 31, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Non-interest income was $22.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $26.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.&nbsp;&nbsp;The decrease in non-interest income is primarily attributable to a $2.5 million net loss on the sales of securities and a $2.1 million decrease in appraisal management fee income due to a decrease in appraisal volume&nbsp;related to national trends in real estate purchases, which were partially offset by a $723,000 increase in miscellaneous non-interest income primarily due to an increase in deferred compensation income&nbsp;due to an increase in valuations for the assets in the deferred compensation plan.&nbsp;&nbsp;The securities sales referenced above were executed in January and February 2023 to reduce risk in the investment portfolio, at a time when favorable sale conditions had developed for municipal securities.&nbsp;&nbsp;These sales also provided the Bank with more flexibility to support loan growth and reduce the need for other borrowings.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Non-interest expense was $56.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.&nbsp;&nbsp;A $1.7 million decrease in appraisal management fee expense due to a decrease in appraisal volume related to national trends in real estate purchases, was offset by a $1.4 million increase in other non-interest expenses primarily due to an increase in deferred compensation expense due to an increase in valuations for the assets in the deferred compensation plan and a $510,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits expense primarily due to a reduction in the amortization of loan origination costs.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Income tax expense was $984,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The effective tax rate was 22.24% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 20.99% for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Income tax expense was $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The effective tax rate was 21.97% for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to 20.56% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to a reduction in non-taxable investments.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; TEXT-INDENT: 0px;text-align:center;">2</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td><p style='page-break-after: always'></p></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Total assets were $1.6 billion as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

This new guidance resulted in an initial reduction to retained earnings of $838,000, net of tax, due to a $1.1 million increase in the allowance for credit losses, comprised of a $2.3 million increase in the allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments and a $1.2 million decrease in the allowance for credit losses on loans. The allowance for credit losses on loans was $11.0 million or 1.01% of total loans at December 31, 2023, compared to $10.5 million or 1.02% at December 31, 2022. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments was $1.8 million at December 31, 2023 using the Company&#8217;s CECL calculation methodology, compared to zero at December 31, 2022 using the Company&#8217;s incurred loss calculation methodology. Management believes the current level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate; however, there is no assurance that additional adjustments to the allowance will not be required because of changes in economic conditions, regulatory requirements or other factors.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Deposits were $1.4 billion at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Core deposits, a non-GAAP measure, which include noninterest-bearing demand deposits, NOW, MMDA, savings and non-brokered certificates of deposit of denominations of $250,000 or less, were $1.2 billion at December 31, 2023, compared to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2022. Management believes it is useful to calculate and present core deposits because of the positive impact this low cost funding source provides to the Bank&#8217;s overall cost of funds and profitability. Certificates of deposit in amounts of more than $250,000 totaled $148.9 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $31.0 million at December 31, 2022. Other time deposits totaled $190.2 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $67.0 million at December 31, 2022. The increases in certificates of deposit in amounts of more than $250,000 and other time deposits are primarily due to promotional rates offered on select certificate of deposit products during the year ended December 31, 2023.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 45px; text-align:justify;">Securities sold under agreements to repurchase were $86.7 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $47.7 million at December 31, 2022. The increase in securities sold under agreements to repurchase is primarily due to customers transferring funds from deposits to securities sold under agreements to repurchase during the year ended December 31, 2023.
