1

million, or $0.54 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2021, and $4.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.  

Total assets increased $183.9 million, or 7.5%, during the fourth quarter of 2021 to $2.64 billion, compared to $2.45 billion at September 30, 2021. Deposit growth was strong, increasing $140.2 million, or 6.3%, during the three months ended December 31, 2021.  Non-PPP loan growth of $186.8 million, or 12.9%, for the three months ended December 31, 2021.  Even with PPP loans decreasing $155.5 million, or 58.2% as a result of PPP loan forgiveness and repayments, total loans receivable increased $37.1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2021.  

“We had tremendous interest and success with our public offering of common stock during the fourth quarter of 2021. The offering closed on December 17, 2021, with gross proceeds of $34.5 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses.  These proceeds will help support investment and growth opportunities for the Company and Bank. Revenue was robust in 2021, with total revenue of $107.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $65.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.  Total revenue excluding BaaS credit enhancements, BaaS fraud recovery and reimbursement of expenses* increased $31.0 million, or 47.7%,  to $96.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $65.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our CCBX division, which provides Banking as a Service (“BaaS”), had significant relationship growth in 2021, with 28 relationships at December 31, 2021, an increase of 13 relationships compared to December 31, 2020.  CCBX generates additional fee and interest income, and expenses, for the Company by providing BaaS to broker dealers and digital financial service providers who offer their clients these banking services. We are very pleased with the deposit growth in CCBX during the year, which increased $647.6 million, or 942.8%, to $716.3 million of as of December 31, 2021, not including an additional $252.4 million in CCBX deposits that are transferred off the balance sheet as of December 31, 2021.  CCBX loans also increased dramatically during 2021, to $346.6 million as of December 31, 2021, compared to $65.6 million as of December 31, 2020, an increase of $281.0 million, or 428.2%. ” stated Eric Sprink, the President and CEO of the Company and the Bank.

Results of Operations

Net interest income was $24.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $5.9 million, or 31.4%, from $18.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and an increase of $7.8 million, or 45.9%, from $16.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.  Yield on loans receivable was 5.92% for the three months ended December 31, 2021, compared to 4.57% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 4.64% for the three months ended December 31, 2020.  The increase in net interest income compared to September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, was largely related to net deferred fee income recognized on forgiven or repaid PPP loans as well as increased yield on loans resulting from loan growth and a decrease in lower yielding PPP loans.  Average loans receivable for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, was $1.68 billion, compared to $1.53 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2020.  

Interest and fees on loans totaled $25.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021 compared to $19.4 million and $17.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  Net non-PPP loan growth of $186.8 million, or 12.9%, during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, offset a decrease of $155.5 million in PPP loans that were forgiven or repaid, which resulted in the recognition of  $5.8 million in net deferred fees on PPP loans. Capital call lines increased $41.4 million, or 25.7%, during the quarter ended December 31, 2021.  These loans bear a lower rate of interest, but have less credit risk due to the way the loans are structured compared to other commercial loans.  The increase in interest and fees on loans for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020, was largely due to $5.8 million in net deferred fees recognized on forgiven or repaid PPP loans during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to $2.8 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2020.  

As of December 31, 2021, there were $111.8 million in PPP loans, compared to $267.3 million as of September 30, 2021, and $365.8 million as of December 31, 2020.  In the three months ended December 31, 2021, a total of $155.5 million in PPP loans were forgiven or repaid.  Net deferred fees recognized on PPP loans contributed $5.8 million for the three months

2

ended December 31, 2021, compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020.

As of December 31, 2021, $3.6 million in net deferred fees on PPP loans remains to be recognized in interest income in future periods along with interest earned on loans.  Net deferred fees on PPP loans are earned over the life of the loan, as a yield adjustment in interest income.  Forgiveness of principal, early paydowns and payoffs on PPP loans will increase interest income earned in those periods from the recognition of PPP deferred fees. PPP loans in rounds one and two were originated in 2020, and were predominately two year loans, with $4.3 million of these loans remaining at December 31, 2021.  PPP loans in round three were originated in 2021 and are all five-year loans, with $107.5 million of these loans remaining at December 31, 2021.  

Interest income from interest earning deposits with other banks was $294,000 at December 31, 2021, an increase of $124,000 and $218,000 due to higher balances compared to September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively.  The average balance of interest earning deposits with other banks for the three months ended December 31, 2021 was $751.8 million, compared to $419.7 million and $166.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  

Interest expense was $843,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, a $42,000 increase from the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and a $322,000 decrease from the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Interest expense on borrowed funds was $327,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to $278,000 and $407,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Interest expense on borrowed funds increased $49,000 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021as a result of an increase in subordinated debt outstanding.  Although the increase in subordinated debt occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, the increased balance occurred midway through the quarter, therefore the three months ended December 31, 2021 reflects the increase in expense for a full quarter.  The $80,000 decrease in interest expense on borrowed funds from the quarter ended December 31, 2020 is the result of a decrease in average PPPLF borrowings, which were paid off in full as of June 30, 2021, partially offset by an increase in subordinated debt interest expense as a result of the increased outstanding balance.  Interest expense on interest bearing deposits decreased despite an increase of $42.3 million and $153.8 million in average interest bearing deposits for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 over the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, as a result of management lowering deposit interest rates and a continued low interest rate environment.  This contributed to improved cost of deposits for the three months ended December 31, 2021, which decreased 15.0% and 58.7% when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Net interest margin was 3.95% for the three months ended December 31, 2021, compared to 3.48% and 3.89% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  The increase in net interest margin compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, was largely a result of $5.8 million in net deferred fees recognized on PPP loans compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021.   Contributing to the decrease in net interest margin compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020, was $751.8 million in average interest earning deposits as of December 31, 2021, a $585.1 million increase compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020.  These interest earning deposits earned an average rate of 16 basis points for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

Cost of funds decreased two basis points in the quarter ended December 31, 2021 to 0.14%, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and decreased 15 basis points from the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Cost of deposits for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was 0.09%, a decrease of one basis point, from 0.10% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and a 13 basis point decrease, from 0.22% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, largely due to an increase in noninterest bearing deposits and a lower rate environment. Deposit growth from CCBX in noninterest bearing and low interest bearing accounts contributed to the reduced cost of funds in conjunction with rate reductions on our community bank deposits.  Noninterest bearing deposits increased $59.5 million, or 4.6%, and $763.6 million, or 128.9%, compared to the quarters ended September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively.  Market conditions for deposits continued to be competitive during the quarter ended December 31, 2021; however, we have been able to keep our cost of deposits down by increasing low interest bearing and noninterest bearing deposits and allowing high cost deposits to run-off when appropriate, lowering deposit rates and replacing them with lower cost core deposits.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, total loans receivable increased by $37.1 million, to $1.74 billion, compared to $1.71 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.  Non-PPP loans increased $186.8 million, or 12.9%, for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2021.  PPP loans decreased $155.5 million as a result of forgiveness and repayments and totaled $111.8 million as of December 31, 2021 compared to $267.3 million as of September 30, 2021.  

Total yield on loans receivable for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was 5.92%, compared to 4.57% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and 4.64% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. This increase in yield on loans receivable is attributed to an increase in deferred fees recognized on PPP loans forgiven and repaid and a decrease in the outstanding balance of PPP loans that have a stated rate of 1.0% which is combined with the recognition of net deferred fees on PPP loans that are forgiven or repaid.  Additionally, new non-PPP loans bear a higher average interest rate than the stated 1.0% PPP loans they are replacing.  

Yield on loans receivable, excluding earned fees* approximated 4.37% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to 3.74% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and 3.66% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 and were higher primarily due to the decline in PPP loans which have a 1.0% stated rate. Net deferred fees recognized on loans were $6.6 million (includes $5.8 million on PPP loans), $3.5 million (includes $2.9 million on PPP loans) and $3.8 million (includes $2.8 million on PPP loans) for the quarters ended December 31, 2021, September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  

Return on average assets (“ROA”) was 1.14% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 compared to 1.21% and 1.04% for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  ROA for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was impacted by increased demand deposits and cash on the balance sheet, which are lower yielding earning assets and produce a lower loan to deposit ratio.  ROA for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 was impacted by increased provision for loan losses, which reduced earnings, due to the economic uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic and loan growth.

The PPP loans originated in the first and second rounds during 2020 and in the third round in 2021 have had a significant impact on our financial statements.  As the PPP loans continue to paydown they will impact our results in the future.  Any estimated adjusted ratios that exclude the impact of this activity are non-GAAP measures.  For more information about non-GAAP financial measures, please see the end of this earnings release.

The table below summarizes information about total PPP loans originated in 2020 and 2021.

As of December 31, 2021 there was $111.8 million in PPP loans, this includes $4.3 million from round 1 & 2 and $107.5 million from round 3.  The table below summarizes key information about the remaining PPP loans originated in 2020 and 2021 as of the period indicated:

The following table shows the Company’s key performance ratios for the periods indicated.  The table also includes ratios that were adjusted by removing the impact of the PPP loans as described above.  The adjusted ratios are non-GAAP measures.  For more information about non-GAAP financial measures, see the end of this earnings release.

Noninterest income was $14.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $8.1 million from $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and an increase of $12.2 million from $2.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020.  The increase in noninterest income over the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was due to an increase of $9.1 million in BaaS fees – credit enhancements related to the allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded commitments, $913,000 in BaaS fees – fraud recovery, and an increase of $385,000 in other BaaS fees (see “Appendix B” for more information on the accounting for BaaS allowance for loan losses, reserve for unfunded commitments, credit enhancements and fraud recovery), partially offset by the absence of a $1.5 million unrealized holding gain on an equity investment that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and a $723,000 decrease in loan referral fees.  The $12.2 million increase in noninterest income over the quarter ended December 31, 2020 was primarily due to a $11.9 million increase in BaaS fees ($9.1 million related to credit enhancements, $1.2 million related to fraud recovery and $1.6 million in other BaaS fees), $224,000 more in other income primarily due to an increase of $121,000 in SBA servicing fees, partially offset by the absence of a $400,000 unrealized loss on an equity investment that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 and a $423,000 decrease in loan referral fees.  Interchange income from BaaS partners for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was $368,000, compared to $188,000 and $10,000, as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Our CCBX division continues to grow, and now has 28 relationships, at varying stages, as of December 31, 2021, compared to 26 CCBX relationships at September 30, 2021 and 15 CCBX relationships at December 31, 2020, respectively.  As of December 31, 2021, we had 19 active CCBX relationships, one relationship in friends and family/testing, five relationships in onboarding/implementation, three signed letters of intent and we believe we have a strong pipeline of potential new CCBX relationships.

The following table illustrates the activity and growth in CCBX for the periods presented:

Total noninterest expense increased to $21.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, compared to $16.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $10.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020. Increase in noninterest expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2021, was primarily due to a $2.9 million increase in BaaS expense, $1.9 million of which is related to partner loan expense and  $912,000 of which is related to partner fraud expense.  Partner loan expense represents the amount paid or payable to partners for credit enhancement and servicing CCBX loans. Partner fraud expense represents non-credit fraud losses on partner’s customer loan and deposit accounts.  Also contributing to the increase in noninterest expense compared to September 30, 2021 is a $609,000 increase in other expenses, which includes a $293,000 higher reserve for unfunded commitment expense, a $168,000 increase in operational losses, and a $118,000 increase in donations.  The increase in donations was largely due to community-based contributions.  Salaries and employee benefits also increased $580,000 compared to September 30, 2021, which is related to the hiring in CCBX and additional staff for our ongoing growth initiatives.  In the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2021, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessments increased $412,000, software license, maintenance and subscription expenses increased $166,000 and legal and professional fees increased $155,000.  The increase in FDIC assessments is largely the result of an increase in deposits combined with other factors that impact the FDIC assessment calculation compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2021.  The increase in software license, maintenance and subscription expenses increased as a result of implementing software that aids in the reporting of CCBX activities and monitoring of transactions that helps to automate and create other efficiencies in reporting.  The increase in legal and professional expenses is associated with CCBX division expenses and higher costs associated with legal and accounting work related to financial reporting.  

The increased noninterest expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020 were largely due to a $4.1 million increase in salary and employee benefits related to hiring staff for CCBX and additional staff for our ongoing banking growth initiatives, an increase of $3.5 million in BaaS partner expense ($2.3 million of which is related to partner loan expense and $1.2 million of which is related to partner fraud expense), and a $854,000 increase in other expense (which includes a $318,000 increase in unfunded commitment expense, a $154,000 increase in donations, largely due to community-based contributions, and a $139,000 increase in operational losses).  Also contributing to the increase in expenses compared to December 31, 2020 is a $582,000 increase in FDIC assessments, a $581,000 increase in software licenses, maintenance and subscriptions, and a $367,000 increase in legal and professional fees.  The increase in FDIC assessments is largely the result of an increase in deposits combined with other factors that impact the FDIC assessment calculation compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020.  The increase in software license, maintenance and subscription expenses increased as a result of implementing software that aids in the reporting of CCBX activities and monitoring of transactions that helps to automate and create other efficiencies in reporting.  The increase in legal and professional expenses is associated with CCBX division expenses and higher costs associated with legal and accounting work related to financial reporting.  

The provision for income taxes was $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $1.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020.  The Company is subject to various state taxes that are assessed as CCBX activities expand into other states, which has increased the overall tax rate used in calculating the provision for income taxes in the current and future periods. The Company uses a federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% as a basis for calculating provision for federal income taxes and 0.9% for calculating the provision for state taxes.

Financial Condition

Total assets increased $183.9 million, or 7.5%, to $2.64 billion at December 31, 2021 compared to $2.45 billion at September 30, 2021.  Interest earning deposits with other banks increased $160.7 million, primarily a result of increased CCBX deposits during the quarter ended December 31, 2021.  Loans receivable increased $37.1 million even after experiencing $155.5 million in PPP loan forgiveness and paydowns during the quarter ended December 31, 2021.  Total assets increased $869.4 million, or 49.2%, at December 31, 2021, compared to $1.77 billion at December 31, 2020.  Interest earning deposits with other banks including the Federal Reserve increased $654.5 million primarily from increased deposits, and loans receivable increased $195.6 million, compared to December 31, 2020.  

Total loans receivable increased $37.1 million to $1.74 billion at December 31, 2021, from $1.71 billion at September 30, 2021, and increased $195.6 million from $1.55 billion at December 31, 2020.  The increase in loans receivable over the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was the result of $186.8 million in non-PPP loan growth partially offset by $155.5 million in PPP loan forgiveness and paydowns.  The $186.8 million increase in non-PPP loans includes CCBX loan growth of $156.5 million, and community bank loan growth of $30.3 million, excluding PPP loans, for the three months ended December 31, 2021.  The Company is developing two segments, both of which are included in the Bank: CCBX and the community bank.  The CCBX segment includes our BaaS activities and the community bank segment includes all other banking activities.  CCBX loans totaled $346.6 million at December 31, 2021 compared to $190.1 million at September 30, 2021 and $65.6 million at December 31, 2020.  Total loans receivable as of December 31, 2021 is net of $8.8 million in net deferred origination fees, $3.6 million of which is attributed to PPP loans.  Deferred fees on PPP loans are earned over the life of the loan. Loans that were originated in 2020 are primarily two year loans with some being 5 year loans with $4.3 million of these loans remaining as of December 31, 2021, and all PPP loans originated in 2021 have five year maturities, with $107.5 million of these loans remaining as of December 31, 2021.  Along with an increase in loans receivable as of December 31, 2021 compared to September 30, 2021, unused commitments also increased during the same period, with the unused commitments on capital call lines increasing $68.6 million to $416.0 million at December 31, 2021 compared to $347.4 million at September 30, 2021, which should translate into future loan growth as the commitments are utilized.  The increase in loans receivable over the quarter ended December 31, 2020 includes growth of $449.2 million in non-PPP loans, partially offset by a $254.0 million decrease in PPP loans as of December 31, 2021.  Non-PPP loan growth consists of $137.3 million in capital call lines, $60.7 million in commercial real estate loans, $89.2 million in construction, land and land development loans, $60.5 million in residential real estate loans, and a decrease of $3.4 million in other commercial and industrial loans.  Consumer loans increased $91.7 million over the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and $105.0 million over the quarter ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to growth in CCBX.

The following table summarizes the loan portfolio at the periods indicated.

Please see Appendix A for additional loan portfolio detail regarding industry concentrations.

The following table details the CCBX loans which are included in the total loan portfolio table above.

Total deposits increased $140.2 million, or 6.3%, to $2.36 billion at December 31, 2021 from $2.22 billion at September 30, 2021.  The increase was due primarily to a $101.1 million increase in core deposits, which is primarily the result of growth in CCBX partners and expanding and growing banking relationships with new customers.  Deposits in our CCBX division increased $109.1 million, from $607.2 million at September 30, 2021, to $716.3 million at December 31, 2021.  The deposits from our CCBX division are predominately classified as noninterest bearing, or NOW and money market accounts, but a portion of such CCBX deposits may be classified as brokered deposits as a result of the relationship agreement.  Currently, the majority of CCBX deposits are noninterest bearing, however, as the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee raises interest rates, a majority of these accounts will bear interest and be reclassified to interest bearing deposits once rates exceed the minimum interest rate set in their respective program agreements and begin to earn interest.  During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, noninterest bearing deposits increased $59.5 million, or 4.6%, to $1.36 billion from $1.30 billion at September 30, 2021.  Included in the increase in noninterest bearing deposits is an increase in CCBX division deposits of $62.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.  In the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2021, NOW and money market accounts increased $33.9 million, and savings accounts increased $7.8 million.  BaaS-brokered

deposits increased $42.4 million, or 149.2%, while time deposits decreased $3.2 million, or 6.9% in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2021.  

Total deposits increased $942.5 million, or 66.3%, to $2.36 billion at December 31, 2021 compared to $1.42 billion at December 31, 2020.  Noninterest bearing deposits increased $763.6 million, or 128.9%, to $1.36 billion at December 31, 2021 from $592.3 million at December 31, 2020.  NOW and money market accounts increased $131.4 million, or 20.0%, to $789.7 million at December 31, 2021, and savings accounts increased $26.3 million, or 33.9%, and BaaS-brokered deposits increased $37.3 million, or 111.3% while time deposits decreased $16.2 million, or 27.1%, in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.  The overall increase in deposits was achieved despite a decrease of $25.6 million in total deposits due to the sale of our Freeland branch which included deposits as compared to December 31, 2020 deposits which included Freeland branch deposits.  Additionally, as of December 31, 2021 we have access to $252.4 million in CCBX customer deposits that are currently being transferred off the Bank’s balance sheet to other financial institutions on a daily basis.  The Bank could retain these deposits for liquidity and funding purposes if needed.  If a portion of these deposits are retained, they would be classified as brokered deposits, however if the entire available balance is retained, they would be non-brokered deposits.  Efforts to retain and grow core deposits are evidenced by the high ratios in these categories when compared to total deposits.  

The following table summarizes the deposit portfolio at the periods indicated.

The following table details the CCBX deposits which are included in the total deposit portfolio table above.

The Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) allows us to borrow against our line of credit, which is collateralized by certain loans. As of December 31, 2021, we borrowed a total of $25.0 million in FHLB term advances.  This includes a $10.0 million advance that matures in March of 2023 and $15.0 million advance that matures in March 2025.  These advances provide an alternative and stable source of funding for loan demand.  Although there are no immediate plans to borrow additional funds, additional FHLB borrowing capacity of $76.3 million was available under this arrangement as of December 31, 2021.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company completed a public offering of 851,853 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $40.50 per share.  Gross proceeds from the offering of $34.5 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, will be used for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, to

support investment opportunities and the Bank’s growth.  A total of $15.0 million of those proceeds was contributed to the Bank, and the balance of the amount was retained in cash at the Company level.

Total shareholders’ equity increased $40.1 million since September 30, 2021.  The increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily due to proceeds from the public offering described above and $7.3 million in net earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2021.

The Company and the Bank remain well capitalized at December 31, 2021, as summarized in the following table.  

Asset Quality

The total allowance for loan losses was $28.6 million and 1.64% of loans receivable at December 31, 2021 compared to $20.2 million and 1.19% at September 30, 2021 and $19.3 million and 1.25% at December 31, 2020.  The allowance for loan loss allocated to the CCBX portfolio was $8.0 million and 2.30% of CCBX loan receivable at December 31, 2021, with $20.7 million of allowance for loan loss allocated to the community bank or 1.48% of total community bank loans receivable.  At December 31, 2021, there was $111.8 million in PPP loans, which are 100% guaranteed by the SBA.  Adjusted allowance for loan losses to loans receivable, excluding PPP loans* was 1.75% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.  

The following table details the allocation of the allowance for loan loss as of the period indicated:

Provision for loan losses totaled $8.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, $255,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020. Net charge-offs totaled $532,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to net recoveries of $1,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and net charge-offs of $384,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

The following table details net charge-offs for the core bank and CCBX for the period indicated:

The increase in the Company’s provision for loan losses during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, is largely related to the provision for CCBX partner loans.  Beginning with and during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, a $8.3 million provision for loan losses was recorded for CCBX partner loans based on management’s analysis.   The factors used in management’s analysis for community bank loan losses indicated that a provision for loan losses of $243,000 and $255,000 was needed for the quarters ended December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively.  The economic environment is continuously changing and has shown some signs of improvement, with the United States implementing stimulus packages, ongoing vaccination of its population and increased re-opening of economic activities, tempered by increased inflation, and a rise in new COVID-19 variants that have resulted in some economic uncertainty.  The Company is not required to implement the provisions of the Current Expected Credit Loss accounting standard until January 1, 2023 and continues to account for the allowance for credit losses under the incurred loss model.  

The following table details the provision expense for the community bank and CCBX for the period indicated:

At December 31, 2021, our nonperforming assets were $1.7 million, or 0.07% of total assets, compared to $740,000, or 0.03%, of total assets, at September 30, 2021, and $712,000, or 0.04% of total assets, at December 31, 2020.  Nonperforming assets increased $987,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2021, due to an increase of $1.4 million in CCBX loans that are past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest partially offset by a decrease of $396,000 in nonaccrual loans.  There were no repossessed assets or other real estate owned at December 31, 2021.  Our nonperforming loans to loans receivable ratio was 0.10% at December 31, 2021, compared to 0.04% at September 30, 2021, and 0.05% at December 31, 2020.  

For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, we have not seen a significant change in our credit quality metrics, as demonstrated by the low level of community bank charge-offs and nonperforming loans.  The long-term economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, political gridlock, and trade issues remains unknown; however, the Company remains diligent in its efforts to communicate and proactively work with borrowers to help mitigate potential credit deterioration.  For the quarter ended December 31, 2021 $364,000 in net charge-offs were recorded on CCBX loans.  These loans have a higher level of expected losses than our community bank loans, which is reflected in the factors for the allowance for loan losses.   Agreements with our CCBX loan partners provide for a credit enhancement against losses.
