Recent Developments

The proposed acquisition is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025 subject to customary closing conditions, including approval from the shareholders of Magnolia and bank regulatory authorities. No vote of the Company's shareholders is required.
  • As previously reported, on May 15, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to $10.00 million of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock from time to time in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions (the "Stock Repurchase Program"). The Stock Repurchase Program will expire on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, subject to the earlier termination or extension by the Company's Board of Directors, in its sole discretion and without prior notice, or until such time that the funds designated for the Stock Repurchase Program are depleted. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 8,000 shares under the Stock Repurchase Program for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $320 thousand. Since the date the Stock Repurchase program was authorized, the Company has repurchased a total of 21,909 shares under the Stock Repurchase Program for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $785 thousand.
  • As previously disclosed, the Company closed on the issuance of $175.00 million of senior perpetual noncumulative preferred stock (the "Senior Preferred") to the U.S. Department of the Treasury ("Treasury") pursuant to the Emergency Capital Investment Program ("ECIP") in April 2022 and assumed an additional $43.57 million of outstanding Senior Preferred through the Company's acquisition of Mechanics Banc Holding Company, which was effective on January 1, 2023. The Senior Preferred issued to Treasury will pay non-cumulative dividends, payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year beginning on the second dividend payment date after the two-year anniversary of the date of issuance. The dividend rate to be paid on the Senior Preferred will adjust annually based on certain measurements of the Company's extensions of credit to minority, rural, and urban low-income and underserved communities and low- and moderate-income borrowers. The Company began paying a quarterly dividend to Treasury on June 15, 2024 and the Company paid its fourth consecutive quarterly dividend to Treasury in an amount equal to $1.09 million on March 15, 2025.

CEO Commentary

Moak Griffin, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, stated, "Overall, we are pleased with our first quarter 2025 results highlighted by our solid organic growth, declining cost of funds, and improving credit quality metrics. We are also very excited about our recent announcement that we have signed a definitive agreement providing for our acquisition of Magnolia and Magnolia Bank. We believe that the partnership with Magnolia Bank will allow BankFirst to continue its strategic plan by partnering with community banks with strong relationships in their local markets."

Mr. Griffin continued, "We continue to hold a positive outlook for the future. Our capital and liquidity positions remain strong and credit quality remains stable as our non-performing assets and our annualized rate of net charge-offs to average loans remain low. We believe the Bank is in a favorable position to navigate the ongoing economic uncertainty, elevated interest rates, and the persistent inflationary environment."

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Total assets were $2.86 billion at March 31, 2025, compared to $2.80 billion at December 31, 2024, and $2.76 billion at March 31, 2024. Total loans outstanding, net of the allowance for credit losses, as of March 31, 2025 totaled $1.80 billion, compared to $1.83 billion as of December 31, 2024 and $1.78 billion as of March 31, 2024.

Total deposits as of March 31, 2025 were $2.41 billion, compared to $2.36 billion at December 31, 2024 and $2.32 billion at March 31, 2024. Non-interest-bearing deposits were $533.14 million as of March 31, 2025, compared to $538.71 million as of December 31, 2024, a decrease of 1%, and $518.37 million as of March 31, 2024, an increase of 4%. Non-interest-bearing deposits represented 22% of total deposits as of March 31, 2025.

The Company's consolidated cost of funds was 1.88% for the first quarter of 2025, compared to 1.96% for the fourth quarter of 2024 and 1.81% for the first quarter 2024. Bank-only cost of funds for the first quarter of 2025 was 1.84% compared to 1.97% for the fourth quarter of 2024 and 1.80% for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in the Company's consolidated cost of funds during the first quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the continued decrease of market interest rates for deposits across the Bank's market areas.

The ratio of loans to deposits was 75.6% as of March 31, 2025, compared to 78.7% as of December 31, 2024 and 77.8% as of March 31, 2024.

Net interest income was $21.93 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $22.23 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 and $20.14 million for the first quarter of 2024. Net interest margin was 3.57% in the first quarter of 2025, a decrease from 3.59% in the fourth quarter of 2024 and an increase from 3.33% in the first quarter of 2024. Yield on interest-earning assets was 5.42% during the first quarter of 2025, compared to 5.51% during the fourth quarter of 2024 and 5.15% during the first quarter of 2024.  The net interest margin was marginally lower when compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. This was influenced by a decrease in our total loan balance, which in turn had a downward impact on our overall earning asset yield for the first quarter of 2025.

Noninterest income was $6.63 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $7.79 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of 15%, and compared to $6.51 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 2%. Mortgage banking revenue during the first quarter of 2025 was $759 thousand, a decrease of $32 thousand, or 4%, from $791 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2024, and an increase of $85 thousand, or 13%, from $674 thousand in the first quarter of 2024. During the first quarter of 2025, the Bank retained $7.28 million of the $30.66 million in secondary market mortgages originated to hold in-house, compared to $34.80 million secondary market loans originated during the fourth quarter of 2024, of which $8.50 million were retained to hold-in house, and compared to $25.80 million secondary market loans originated during the first quarter of 2024, of which $788 thousand were retained to hold in-house.

Noninterest expense was $20.05 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $19.26 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 and $19.97 million for the first quarter of 2024.

As of March 31, 2025, tangible common book value per share (non-GAAP) was $25.00. According to OTCQX, there were 514 trades of the Company's shares of common stock during the first quarter of 2025 for a total of 136,101 shares and for an aggregate price of approximately $5.50 million. The closing price of the Company's common stock quoted on OTCQX on March 31, 2025 was $41.00 per share. Based on this closing share price, the Company's market capitalization was $223.22 million as of March 31, 2025.

Credit Quality

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $600 thousand during the first quarter of 2025, compared to a provision of $1.23 million during the fourth quarter of 2024 and a provision of $525 thousand for the first quarter of 2024. The Company continues to closely monitor the continued economic uncertainty, especially in the commercial real estate market, as discussed below. 

The Company recorded $586 thousand of net loan charge-offs in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $698 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $277 thousand in the first quarter of 2024. Non-performing assets, excluding restructured loans, to total assets were 0.51% for the first quarter of 2025, compared to 0.61% for the fourth quarter of 2024 and 0.42% for the first quarter of 2024. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans for the first quarter of 2025 were 0.03% compared to annualized net charge-offs of 0.04% for the fourth quarter of 2024 and 0.02% for the first quarter of 2024. 

As of March 31, 2025, the allowance for credit losses equaled $23.54 million, compared to $23.53 million as of December 31, 2024, and $24.33 million as of March 31, 2024.  Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.29% at March 31, 2025, compared to 1.27% at December 31, 2024, and 1.35% at March 31, 2024.  Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 160% at March 31, 2025, compared to 137% at December 31, 2024, and 211% at March 31, 2024. 

The Company continues to closely monitor credit quality in light of the ongoing economic uncertainty caused by, among other factors, the prolonged elevated interest rate environment and the lingering inflationary pressures, and the risk of the resurgence of elevated levels of inflation, in the United States and our market areas. Accordingly, additional provisions for credit losses may be necessary in future periods.

Liquidity and Capital Position

Liquidity – We have a limited reliance on wholesale funding and, as of March 31, 2025, had no brokered deposits. As of March 31, 2025, we had the capacity to borrow up to approximately $915.86 million from the FHLB, $13.87 million from the FRB discount window and an estimated additional $60.00 million in funding through several relationships with correspondent banks.

Capital Requirements and the Community Bank Leverage Ratio Framework – Pursuant to federal regulations, bank holding companies and banks, like the Company and the Bank, must maintain capital levels commensurate with the level of risk to which they are exposed, including the volume and severity of problem loans. Federal banking regulations implementing the international regulatory capital framework, referred to as the "Basel III Rules," apply to both depository institutions and (subject to certain exceptions not applicable to the Company) their holding companies. The Basel III Rules also establish a "capital conservation buffer" of 2.5% above the regulatory minimum risk-based capital requirements. The Basel III minimum capital ratios with the full capital conservation buffer are summarized in the table below.

The capital conservation buffer is not applicable to Tier 1 Leverage Ratio.

On September 17, 2019, the federal banking agencies jointly finalized a rule intended to simplify the Basel III regulatory capital requirements described above for qualifying community banking organizations that opt into the Community Bank Leverage Ratio ("CBLR") framework, as required by Section 201 of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act. The final rule became effective on January 1, 2020, and the CBLR framework became available for banks to use beginning with their March 31, 2020 Call Reports. Under the final rule, if a qualifying community banking organization opts into the CBLR framework and meets all requirements under the framework, it will be considered to have met the "well-capitalized" regulatory capital ratio requirements under the "prompt corrective action" regulations promulgated by the federal banking agencies and will not be required to report or calculate risk-based capital under the Basel III Rules. In order to qualify for the CBLR framework, a community banking organization must have a tier 1 leverage ratio of greater than 9.0%, less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, and limited amounts of off-balance-sheet exposures and trading assets and liabilities.

The Company and the Bank are qualifying community banking organizations and, on June 15, 2022, the Company and the Bank elected to opt into the CBLR framework. However, the Company currently operates under the Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") and, therefore, is not currently subject to the Federal Reserve's consolidated capital reporting requirements. Accordingly, the Company's election to opt into the CBLR framework will commence for the first reporting period for which the Company no longer operates under the Federal Reserve's Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement, at which time the Company will become subject to the Federal Reserve's consolidated capital requirements. 

By electing to opt into the CBLR framework, the Company and the Bank are not required to report or calculate risk-based capital under the Basel III Rules described above. As of March 31, 2025, the Bank's bank-only CBLR amounted to 10.80%. While the Company is currently not subject to the Federal Reserve's consolidated capital requirements, as discussed above, the Company's consolidated CBLR would have amounted to 12.51% as of March 31, 2025. These levels exceeded the 9.0% minimum CBLR necessary to be deemed "well-capitalized."

Included in shareholders' equity at March 31, 2025 was an unrealized loss in accumulated other comprehensive income of $8.96 million related to unrealized losses in the Company's investment securities portfolio primarily due to the continued elevated market interest rates during the period. At March 31, 2025, the composition of the Bank's investment securities portfolio includes $225.93 million, or 42.75%, classified as available-for-sale, and $302.57 million, or 57.25%, classified as held to maturity. All investments in our investment securities portfolio are expected to mature at par value.

Our investment securities portfolio made up 18.49% of our total assets at March 31, 2025, compared to 19.10% and 20.20% at December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.
