National Capital Bancorp, Inc. Reports Third 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 $1,204,000, or $4.20 per common share, for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to net income of $1,050,000 or $3.67 per common share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company reported net income of $3,323,000, or $11.61 per share, compared to $1,645,000, or $5.75 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The prior year-to-date results included a $1.7 million build-up in the Bank’s allowance for loan losses in an aggressive response to the uncertain economic and other factors relating to the COVID-19 pandemic but were partially aided by a $0.6 million gain on sale of securities during the third quarter of 2020.

Total assets increased year-over-year to $645,131,000 on September 30, 2021 compared to $592,501,000 on September 30, 2020. Total loans of $432,514,000 on September 30, 2021 decreased by $33.1 million during the quarter and have decreased slightly from $439,852,000 the year before. Total deposits decreased during the quarter by $4.0 million to $567,724,000 on September 30, 2021 but have increased from $508,309,000 the year before. The Company has been an active participant in PPP lending which resulted in new loans exceeding $45 million under the 2021 program and totaling over $108 million overall when combined with the 2020 program. PPP loan forgiveness received during the third quarter of 2021 accounted for the overall decline in loans for the quarter. The remaining combined outstanding balance was $35 million on September 30, 2021, compared with a balance of $65 million and $63 million on June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. The Company has collected $3.9 million of processing fees on the PPP loans, which were deferred and are being recognized in income over the life of the loans. Of these fees $611,000 was recognized in interest income during the third quarter of 2021 and $1,665,000 for the first nine months of 2021 leaving remaining deferred fees of $1.3 million on September 30, 2021. The Company’s net interest margin declined to 3.14% during the third quarter of 2021 compared to 3.33% in the second quarter of 2021 and 3.35% in third quarter of 2020. Much like the banking industry as a whole, the Bank is carrying a higher proportion of earning assets in lower yielding securities as loan demand has not kept pace with deposit growth.

Total shareholders’ equity increased to $54,573,000 on September 30, 2021 from $52,398,000 a year ago. The increase resulted primarily from retained earnings for the past twelve months. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 the return on average assets and return on average equity was 0.69% and 8.19%, respectively.

Richard B. (Randy) Anderson, Jr. President and Chief Executive Officer said, “We remain pleased with our earnings progress year-to-date and acknowledge the contribution fees from our PPP lending activities have made. However, even more satisfying has been the number of new meaningful banking relationships we were able to develop from our PPP efforts.” Anderson continued “We believe these new customers and their positive experience with the Bank will represent strong ambassadors for our business development efforts the remainder of the year and going into 2022.”

The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors has declared a dividend of $0.55 per share for shareholders of record as of November 15, 2021. The dividend payout of $157,551.35 on 286,457 shares is payable November 30, 2021.
