Financial results for the quarter reflect strong net interest income offset by lower non-interest income resulting from reduced gain on sale of loan activity. Additionally, a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share was declared for common shareholders. The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share on July 24, 2023. The quarterly dividend will be paid on August 17, 2023 to shareholders of record on August 10, 2023. "Our second quarter results reflected solid net interest income generation, fueled by strong loan growth,” said Brian Reed, President and CEO. “Deposits also increased with growth across half of the deposit categories. We have been very deliberate in our deposit gathering strategies, and as a result were able to grow customer deposits during the quarter, at a time when the banking industry is experiencing deposit contraction. While the net interest margin decrease was primarily related to pressure from the funding side of the balance sheet, we remain prudent with all new loan pricing, with an average loan rate of 5.66% during the quarter, compared to 5.59% in the prior quarter. Despite the challenges and headwinds facing the banking industry, our ability to grow our balance sheet organically will ultimately further enhance the value of our Bank over time.” Second Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights (at or for the three months ended June 30, 2023) Net income was $2,985,000, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared to $4,501,000, or $0.67 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022 and $4,116,000, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.Provision for credit losses was $35,000, compared to $998,000 in the second quarter a year ago.Net interest margin was 3.44%, compared to 3.69% in the preceding quarter and 4.36% in the second quarter a year ago.Second quarter revenues (net interest income plus noninterest income) decreased 12.2% to $11,113,000, compared to $12,656,000 in the second quarter a year ago.Annualized return on average assets was 1.03%, compared to 1.85% in the second quarter of 2022.Annualized return on average equity was 12.69%, compared to 21.26% in the second quarter a year ago.Net loans increased $86,541,000 to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $838,265,000 one year earlier.Net loans increased $17,183,000 during the quarter to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $907,623,000 three months earlier.Total deposits increased 28% to $1,048,316,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $819,932,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 3% when compared to the prior quarter end. Deposit growth during the quarter consisted primarily of increases in NOW and money market accounts gathered from the Bank’s existing five-branch network.The Bank maintains loan loss reserves at the high-end when compared to peers due to increases in nonperforming loans. This is exhibited by loans to gross loans increasing to 2.65% at June 30, 2023 compared to 1.13% at March 31, 2023 and 0.07% at June 30, 2022. Additionally, nonperforming assets to total assets increased to 2.14%, at June 30, 2023 compared to 0.91% at March 31, 2023 and 0.06% at June 30, 2022.Tangible book value was $13.92 per share, compared to $12.66 per share a year ago.Declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022. Operating Results For the second quarter of 2023, the annualized return on average assets was 1.03% and the annualized return on average equity was 12.69%. This compared to an annualized return on average assets of 1.85% and an annualized return on average equity of 21.26%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2022. These results were above the average 0.97% return on average assets and 10.92% return on average equity posted by the 157 bank index peers that make up the Dow Jones U.S. MicroCap Bank index as of March 31, 2023.* Summit’s net interest margin was 3.44% in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 3.69% in the preceding quarter and 4.36% in the second quarter of 2022. “The rising cost of funds outpaced earning asset yields during the quarter, resulting in net interest margin contraction compared to the prior quarter. The cost of deposits in the second quarter was 2.26% as the rapid rate increases have driven customers to switch to higher yielding deposit accounts,” said Reed. Interest and dividend income increased 38% to $15,625,000 in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $11,346,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The increase in interest income is attributable to a $2,607,000 increase in loan interest yield primarily driven by increased loan volume and secondarily by increased rates, $1,388,000 increase in interest on deposits with banks and $284,000 increase in investment interest. Non-interest income decreased in the second quarter of 2023 to $1,449,000 compared to $2,354,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The Bank recognized no gains on sales of SBA and USDA guaranteed loan balances in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $1,953,000 in gains on sales of SBA guaranteed loans balances in the second quarter of 2022. Operating expenses increased in the second quarter of 2023 to $6,822,000 compared to $5,298,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily due to a $728,000 increase in stock appreciation rights expense and by a $470,000 increase in salaries and benefits net of deferred fees and costs. Balance Sheet Review Net loans increased 10% to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $838,265,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 2% compared to March 31, 2023. Total deposits increased 28% to $1,048,316,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $819,932,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 3% when compared to the prior quarter end. Most of the deposit growth year-over-year was due to the Bank’s ongoing focus on growing local deposits organically. At June 30, 2023, noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts decreased 11% compared to a year ago and represented 20% of total deposits; savings, NOW and money market accounts increased 14% compared to a year ago and represented 41% of total deposits, and CDs increased 98% compared to a year ago and comprised 39% of total deposits. The average cost of deposits was 2.26% in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 0.37% in the second quarter of 2022. Shareholders’ equity was $94,435,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $92,665,000 three months earlier and $84,664,000 a year earlier. The increase in shareholders’ equity compared to a year ago was primarily due to an increase of $12,374,000 in retained earnings offset by the $2,890,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss; this change was related to an increase in the unrealized loss on available for sale securities reflecting the increase in market interest rates during the year. At June 30, 2023 tangible book value was $13.92 per share, compared to $13.76 three months earlier, and $12.66 at June 30, 2022. Summit State Bank continues to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized” with tangible equity to tangible assets of 8.15% at June 30, 2023, compared to 7.99% at March 31, 2023, and 8.70% at June 30, 2022. The decrease compared to June 2022 is due to the Bank’s assets outgrowing the retention of capital to build liquidity. Credit Quality Nonperforming assets were $24,908,000, or 2.14% of total assets, at June 30, 2023, and consisted of ten loans; one loan totaling $3,189,000 is a real estate secured commercial loan, two loans totaling $5,960,000 are real estate secured construction and land loans and seven loans totaling $15,759,000 are commercial and agriculture secured loans. There were $11,637,000 of nonperforming assets that were individually assessed resulting in a corresponding reserve of $138,000. There were $570,000 in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2022. Due to strong loan production when compared to the second quarter of 2022 and increases in expected losses, the Bank recorded a $35,000 provision for credit loss expense in the second quarter of 2023. This compared to $998,000 provision for credit loss expense in the second quarter of 2022. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.62% on June 30, 2023 and 1.58% on June 30, 2022. “As we enter the second half of the year, we remain focused on being a reliable source of capital for our customers through all economic cycles,” said Reed. “Although economic uncertainty persists, and unusual challenges presented to us by rapidly rising interest rates continue, we believe that with our strong deposit franchise, solid capital levels, and good credit quality we are well positioned to grow and prosper.” About Summit State Bank Founded in 1982 and headquartered in Sonoma County, Summit State Bank (Nasdaq: SSBI), is an award-winning community bank servicing the North Bay.

Summit State Bank Reports Net Income of $3.0 Million for Second Quarter 2023; Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.12 Per Common Share By: Summit State Bank via GlobeNewswire July 25, 2023 at 09:00 AM EDT SANTA ROSA, Calif., July 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Summit State Bank (Nasdaq: SSBI) today reported net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023 of $2,985,000, or $0.45 per diluted share, a decrease of $1,516,000, or 33.7%, compared to net income of $4,501,000, or $0.67 per diluted share for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022. Financial results for the quarter reflect strong net interest income offset by lower non-interest income resulting from reduced gain on sale of loan activity. Additionally, a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share was declared for common shareholders. The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share on July 24, 2023. The quarterly dividend will be paid on August 17, 2023 to shareholders of record on August 10, 2023. "Our second quarter results reflected solid net interest income generation, fueled by strong loan growth,” said Brian Reed, President and CEO. “Deposits also increased with growth across half of the deposit categories. We have been very deliberate in our deposit gathering strategies, and as a result were able to grow customer deposits during the quarter, at a time when the banking industry is experiencing deposit contraction. While the net interest margin decrease was primarily related to pressure from the funding side of the balance sheet, we remain prudent with all new loan pricing, with an average loan rate of 5.66% during the quarter, compared to 5.59% in the prior quarter. Despite the challenges and headwinds facing the banking industry, our ability to grow our balance sheet organically will ultimately further enhance the value of our Bank over time.” Second Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights (at or for the three months ended June 30, 2023) Net income was $2,985,000, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared to $4,501,000, or $0.67 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022 and $4,116,000, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.Provision for credit losses was $35,000, compared to $998,000 in the second quarter a year ago.Net interest margin was 3.44%, compared to 3.69% in the preceding quarter and 4.36% in the second quarter a year ago.Second quarter revenues (net interest income plus noninterest income) decreased 12.2% to $11,113,000, compared to $12,656,000 in the second quarter a year ago.Annualized return on average assets was 1.03%, compared to 1.85% in the second quarter of 2022.Annualized return on average equity was 12.69%, compared to 21.26% in the second quarter a year ago.Net loans increased $86,541,000 to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $838,265,000 one year earlier.Net loans increased $17,183,000 during the quarter to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $907,623,000 three months earlier.Total deposits increased 28% to $1,048,316,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $819,932,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 3% when compared to the prior quarter end. Deposit growth during the quarter consisted primarily of increases in NOW and money market accounts gathered from the Bank’s existing five-branch network.The Bank maintains loan loss reserves at the high-end when compared to peers due to increases in nonperforming loans. This is exhibited by loans to gross loans increasing to 2.65% at June 30, 2023 compared to 1.13% at March 31, 2023 and 0.07% at June 30, 2022. Additionally, nonperforming assets to total assets increased to 2.14%, at June 30, 2023 compared to 0.91% at March 31, 2023 and 0.06% at June 30, 2022.Tangible book value was $13.92 per share, compared to $12.66 per share a year ago.Declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022. Operating Results For the second quarter of 2023, the annualized return on average assets was 1.03% and the annualized return on average equity was 12.69%. This compared to an annualized return on average assets of 1.85% and an annualized return on average equity of 21.26%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2022. These results were above the average 0.97% return on average assets and 10.92% return on average equity posted by the 157 bank index peers that make up the Dow Jones U.S. MicroCap Bank index as of March 31, 2023.* Summit’s net interest margin was 3.44% in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 3.69% in the preceding quarter and 4.36% in the second quarter of 2022. “The rising cost of funds outpaced earning asset yields during the quarter, resulting in net interest margin contraction compared to the prior quarter. The cost of deposits in the second quarter was 2.26% as the rapid rate increases have driven customers to switch to higher yielding deposit accounts,” said Reed. Interest and dividend income increased 38% to $15,625,000 in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $11,346,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The increase in interest income is attributable to a $2,607,000 increase in loan interest yield primarily driven by increased loan volume and secondarily by increased rates, $1,388,000 increase in interest on deposits with banks and $284,000 increase in investment interest. Non-interest income decreased in the second quarter of 2023 to $1,449,000 compared to $2,354,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The Bank recognized no gains on sales of SBA and USDA guaranteed loan balances in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $1,953,000 in gains on sales of SBA guaranteed loans balances in the second quarter of 2022. Operating expenses increased in the second quarter of 2023 to $6,822,000 compared to $5,298,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily due to a $728,000 increase in stock appreciation rights expense and by a $470,000 increase in salaries and benefits net of deferred fees and costs. Balance Sheet Review Net loans increased 10% to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $838,265,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 2% compared to March 31, 2023. Total deposits increased 28% to $1,048,316,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $819,932,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 3% when compared to the prior quarter end. Most of the deposit growth year-over-year was due to the Bank’s ongoing focus on growing local deposits organically. At June 30, 2023, noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts decreased 11% compared to a year ago and represented 20% of total deposits; savings, NOW and money market accounts increased 14% compared to a year ago and represented 41% of total deposits, and CDs increased 98% compared to a year ago and comprised 39% of total deposits. The average cost of deposits was 2.26% in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 0.37% in the second quarter of 2022. Shareholders’ equity was $94,435,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $92,665,000 three months earlier and $84,664,000 a year earlier. The increase in shareholders’ equity compared to a year ago was primarily due to an increase of $12,374,000 in retained earnings offset by the $2,890,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss; this change was related to an increase in the unrealized loss on available for sale securities reflecting the increase in market interest rates during the year. At June 30, 2023 tangible book value was $13.92 per share, compared to $13.76 three months earlier, and $12.66 at June 30, 2022. Summit State Bank continues to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized” with tangible equity to tangible assets of 8.15% at June 30, 2023, compared to 7.99% at March 31, 2023, and 8.70% at June 30, 2022. The decrease compared to June 2022 is due to the Bank’s assets outgrowing the retention of capital to build liquidity. Credit Quality Nonperforming assets were $24,908,000, or 2.14% of total assets, at June 30, 2023, and consisted of ten loans; one loan totaling $3,189,000 is a real estate secured commercial loan, two loans totaling $5,960,000 are real estate secured construction and land loans and seven loans totaling $15,759,000 are commercial and agriculture secured loans. There were $11,637,000 of nonperforming assets that were individually assessed resulting in a corresponding reserve of $138,000. There were $570,000 in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2022. Due to strong loan production when compared to the second quarter of 2022 and increases in expected losses, the Bank recorded a $35,000 provision for credit loss expense in the second quarter of 2023. This compared to $998,000 provision for credit loss expense in the second quarter of 2022. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.62% on June 30, 2023 and 1.58% on June 30, 2022. “As we enter the second half of the year, we remain focused on being a reliable source of capital for our customers through all economic cycles,” said Reed. “Although economic uncertainty persists, and unusual challenges presented to us by rapidly rising interest rates continue, we believe that with our strong deposit franchise, solid capital levels, and good credit quality we are well positioned to grow and prosper.” About Summit State Bank Founded in 1982 and headquartered in Sonoma County, Summit State Bank (Nasdaq: SSBI), is an award-winning community bank servicing the North Bay.

SANTA ROSA, Calif., July 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Summit State Bank (Nasdaq: SSBI) today reported net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023 of $2,985,000, or $0.45 per diluted share, a decrease of $1,516,000, or 33.7%, compared to net income of $4,501,000, or $0.67 per diluted share for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022. Financial results for the quarter reflect strong net interest income offset by lower non-interest income resulting from reduced gain on sale of loan activity. Additionally, a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share was declared for common shareholders. The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share on July 24, 2023. The quarterly dividend will be paid on August 17, 2023 to shareholders of record on August 10, 2023. "Our second quarter results reflected solid net interest income generation, fueled by strong loan growth,” said Brian Reed, President and CEO. “Deposits also increased with growth across half of the deposit categories. We have been very deliberate in our deposit gathering strategies, and as a result were able to grow customer deposits during the quarter, at a time when the banking industry is experiencing deposit contraction. While the net interest margin decrease was primarily related to pressure from the funding side of the balance sheet, we remain prudent with all new loan pricing, with an average loan rate of 5.66% during the quarter, compared to 5.59% in the prior quarter. Despite the challenges and headwinds facing the banking industry, our ability to grow our balance sheet organically will ultimately further enhance the value of our Bank over time.” Second Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights (at or for the three months ended June 30, 2023) Net income was $2,985,000, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared to $4,501,000, or $0.67 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022 and $4,116,000, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.Provision for credit losses was $35,000, compared to $998,000 in the second quarter a year ago.Net interest margin was 3.44%, compared to 3.69% in the preceding quarter and 4.36% in the second quarter a year ago.Second quarter revenues (net interest income plus noninterest income) decreased 12.2% to $11,113,000, compared to $12,656,000 in the second quarter a year ago.Annualized return on average assets was 1.03%, compared to 1.85% in the second quarter of 2022.Annualized return on average equity was 12.69%, compared to 21.26% in the second quarter a year ago.Net loans increased $86,541,000 to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $838,265,000 one year earlier.Net loans increased $17,183,000 during the quarter to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $907,623,000 three months earlier.Total deposits increased 28% to $1,048,316,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $819,932,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 3% when compared to the prior quarter end. Deposit growth during the quarter consisted primarily of increases in NOW and money market accounts gathered from the Bank’s existing five-branch network.The Bank maintains loan loss reserves at the high-end when compared to peers due to increases in nonperforming loans. This is exhibited by loans to gross loans increasing to 2.65% at June 30, 2023 compared to 1.13% at March 31, 2023 and 0.07% at June 30, 2022. Additionally, nonperforming assets to total assets increased to 2.14%, at June 30, 2023 compared to 0.91% at March 31, 2023 and 0.06% at June 30, 2022.Tangible book value was $13.92 per share, compared to $12.66 per share a year ago.Declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022. Operating Results For the second quarter of 2023, the annualized return on average assets was 1.03% and the annualized return on average equity was 12.69%. This compared to an annualized return on average assets of 1.85% and an annualized return on average equity of 21.26%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2022. These results were above the average 0.97% return on average assets and 10.92% return on average equity posted by the 157 bank index peers that make up the Dow Jones U.S. MicroCap Bank index as of March 31, 2023.* Summit’s net interest margin was 3.44% in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 3.69% in the preceding quarter and 4.36% in the second quarter of 2022. “The rising cost of funds outpaced earning asset yields during the quarter, resulting in net interest margin contraction compared to the prior quarter. The cost of deposits in the second quarter was 2.26% as the rapid rate increases have driven customers to switch to higher yielding deposit accounts,” said Reed. Interest and dividend income increased 38% to $15,625,000 in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $11,346,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The increase in interest income is attributable to a $2,607,000 increase in loan interest yield primarily driven by increased loan volume and secondarily by increased rates, $1,388,000 increase in interest on deposits with banks and $284,000 increase in investment interest. Non-interest income decreased in the second quarter of 2023 to $1,449,000 compared to $2,354,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The Bank recognized no gains on sales of SBA and USDA guaranteed loan balances in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $1,953,000 in gains on sales of SBA guaranteed loans balances in the second quarter of 2022. Operating expenses increased in the second quarter of 2023 to $6,822,000 compared to $5,298,000 in the second quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily due to a $728,000 increase in stock appreciation rights expense and by a $470,000 increase in salaries and benefits net of deferred fees and costs. Balance Sheet Review Net loans increased 10% to $924,806,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $838,265,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 2% compared to March 31, 2023. Total deposits increased 28% to $1,048,316,000 at June 30, 2023 compared to $819,932,000 at June 30, 2022 and increased 3% when compared to the prior quarter end. Most of the deposit growth year-over-year was due to the Bank’s ongoing focus on growing local deposits organically. At June 30, 2023, noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts decreased 11% compared to a year ago and represented 20% of total deposits; savings, NOW and money market accounts increased 14% compared to a year ago and represented 41% of total deposits, and CDs increased 98% compared to a year ago and comprised 39% of total deposits. The average cost of deposits was 2.26% in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 0.37% in the second quarter of 2022. Shareholders’ equity was $94,435,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $92,665,000 three months earlier and $84,664,000 a year earlier. The increase in shareholders’ equity compared to a year ago was primarily due to an increase of $12,374,000 in retained earnings offset by the $2,890,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss; this change was related to an increase in the unrealized loss on available for sale securities reflecting the increase in market interest rates during the year. At June 30, 2023 tangible book value was $13.92 per share, compared to $13.76 three months earlier, and $12.66 at June 30, 2022. Summit State Bank continues to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized” with tangible equity to tangible assets of 8.15% at June 30, 2023, compared to 7.99% at March 31, 2023, and 8.70% at June 30, 2022. The decrease compared to June 2022 is due to the Bank’s assets outgrowing the retention of capital to build liquidity. Credit Quality Nonperforming assets were $24,908,000, or 2.14% of total assets, at June 30, 2023, and consisted of ten loans; one loan totaling $3,189,000 is a real estate secured commercial loan, two loans totaling $5,960,000 are real estate secured construction and land loans and seven loans totaling $15,759,000 are commercial and agriculture secured loans. There were $11,637,000 of nonperforming assets that were individually assessed resulting in a corresponding reserve of $138,000. There were $570,000 in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2022. Due to strong loan production when compared to the second quarter of 2022 and increases in expected losses, the Bank recorded a $35,000 provision for credit loss expense in the second quarter of 2023. This compared to $998,000 provision for credit loss expense in the second quarter of 2022. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.62% on June 30, 2023 and 1.58% on June 30, 2022. “As we enter the second half of the year, we remain focused on being a reliable source of capital for our customers through all economic cycles,” said Reed. “Although economic uncertainty persists, and unusual challenges presented to us by rapidly rising interest rates continue, we believe that with our strong deposit franchise, solid capital levels, and good credit quality we are well positioned to grow and prosper.” About Summit State Bank Founded in 1982 and headquartered in Sonoma County, Summit State Bank (Nasdaq: SSBI), is an award-winning community bank servicing the North Bay.
