  Content	OP Bancorp (the "Company") (NASDAQ: OPBK), the holding company of Open Bank (the "Bank"), today reported its financial results for the third quarter of 2024. Net income remained relatively the same for both the third quarter and second quarter of 2024 at $5.4 million, or $0.36 per diluted common share, compared with $5.1 million, or $0.33 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2023. Min Kim, President and Chief Executive Officer "We continued to grow our loans and deposits at double digit annualized rates in this quarter while maintaining ample liquidity, stable net interest margin, and strong credit quality. As the Fed's easing cycle began in the quarter, the pressure on funding cost and net interest margin is diminishing, and we believe we are well positioned to prolong our growth and performance to achieve our long term strategic goals," said Min Kim, President and Chief Executive.

Includes prepayment penalty income of $114 thousand and $26 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively, from Commercial Real Estate ("CRE") loans. Third Quarter 2024 vs. Second Quarter 2024 Net interest income increased $312 thousand, or 1.9%, primarily due to higher interest income on loans but partially offset by higher interest expense on interest-bearing deposits and lower interest income on interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Net interest margin was 2.95%, a decrease of 1 basis point from 2.96%. A $1.3 million increase in interest income on loans was primarily due to a $62.7 million, or 3.4%, increase in average balance. A $578 thousand increase in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was primarily due to a $29.4 million, or 2.0%, increase in average balance. A $373 thousand decrease in interest income on interest-bearing deposits in other banks was primarily due to a $27.0 million, or 19.8%, decrease in average balance. Third Quarter 2024 vs. Third Quarter 2023 Net interest income decreased $807 thousand, or 4.7%, primarily due to higher interest expense on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by higher interest income on loans and higher interest-bearing deposits in other banks, as our deposit costs repriced quicker than our interest-earning asset yields following the Federal Reserve's rate increases. Net interest margin was 2.95%, a decrease of 43 basis points from 3.38%. A $4.9 million increase in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was primarily due to a $248.4 million, or 20.3%, increase in average balance and a 63 basis point increase in average cost. A $3.6 million increase in interest income on loans was primarily due to a $165.8 million, or 9.5%, increase in average balance and a 21 basis point increase in average yield. A $358 thousand increase in interest income on interest-bearing deposits in other banks was primarily due to a $26.3 million, or 31.7%, increase in average balance.

Provision for credit losses on loans decreased $393 thousand and provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet exposure increased $224 thousand. Provision for credit losses on loans of $234 thousand was primarily due to a $215 thousand increase in the qualitative reserve driven by declining collateral values for collateral dependent CRE loans and weakening economic and business conditions. Provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet exposure of $214 thousand was primarily due to increases in unfunded commitment balance and utilization of commitment. Third Quarter 2024 vs. Third Quarter 2023 The Company recorded $448 thousand in total provision for credit losses, a decrease of $911 thousand, compared with $1.4 million.

Loan servicing fees, net of amortization, were $693 thousand, an increase of $118 thousand from $575 thousand, primarily due to a decrease in servicing fee amortization driven by lower loan payoffs in loan servicing portfolio. Service charges on deposits were $889 thousand, an increase of $96 thousand from $793 thousand, primarily due to an increase in deposit analysis fees from analysis accounts added in 2024. Gain on sale of loans was $2.1 million, a decrease of $237 thousand from $2.3 million, primarily due to a lower average premium on sales. The Bank sold $35.6 million in SBA loans at an average premium rate of 7.30%, compared to the sale of $32.1 million at an average premium rate of 8.58%. Third Quarter 2024 vs. Third Quarter 2023 Noninterest income increased $1.6 million, or 63.0%, primarily due to higher gain on sale of loans, higher service charges on deposits, and higher loan servicing fees. Gain on sale of loans was $2.1 million, an increase of $909 thousand from $1.2 million, primarily due to a higher loan sold amount and a higher average premium rate. The Bank sold $35.6 million in SBA loans at an average premium rate of 7.30%, compared to the sale of $23.4 million at an average premium rate of 6.50%. Service charges on deposits were $889 thousand, an increase of $314 thousand from $575 thousand, primarily due to an increase in deposit analysis fees from an increase in the number of analysis accounts. Loan servicing fees were $693 thousand, an increase of $225 thousand from $468 thousand, primarily due to a decrease in servicing fee amortization driven by lower loan payoffs in loan servicing portfolio.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $463 thousand, primarily due to increases in employee incentive accruals and employee vacation accruals. Data processing and communication increased $104 thousand, primarily due to accrual adjustments made to be in line with our continued growth. Third Quarter 2024 vs. Third Quarter 2023 Noninterest expense increased $1.2 million, or 10.3%, primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits, and data processing and communication. Salaries and employee benefits increased $1.0 million, primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits to support our growth and a lower accrual on employee incentives in the third quarter of 2023. Data processing and communication increased $265 thousand, primarily due to additional expense to support our continued growth and a lower expense in the third quarter of 2023 from a credit received on data processing fees. Income Tax Expense Third Quarter 2024 vs. Second Quarter 2024 Income tax expense was $2.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.3%, compared to income tax expense of $2.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.2%. Third Quarter 2024 vs. Third Quarter 2023 Income tax expense was $2.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.3%, compared to income tax expense of $1.9 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 27.1%. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2023 was lower primarily due to adjustments for differences between the prior year tax provision and the final tax returns that were applied in the quarter.

Overall, the Bank continued to maintain low levels of nonperforming loans and net charge-offs. Our allowance remained strong with an allowance to gross loans ratio of 1.19%. Loans 30-89 days past due and still accruing were $10.3 million or 0.53% of gross loans as of September 30, 2024, compared with $6.7 million or 0.36% as of June 30, 2024. The increase was largely due to four home mortgage loans totaling $2.4 million and three SBA real estate loans totaling $1.3 million. Nonperforming loans were $3.6 million or 0.19% of gross loans as of September 30, 2024, compared with $4.4 million or 0.23% as of June 30, 2024. Nonperforming assets were $4.9 million or 0.20% of total assets as of September 30, 2024, compared with $5.6 million or 0.25% as of June 30, 2024.

Customers' preference for high-rate deposit products continued to drive the increase in time deposits. The increase in noninterest-bearing deposits was mostly driven by balance increases in existing customers, including escrow and 1031 exchanges accounts. The composition of noninterest-bearing deposits also increased to 27.2% of total deposits from 26.7%. As of September 30, 2024 vs. September 30, 2023 Total deposits were $2.06 billion as of September 30, 2024, up $239.4 million from September 30, 2023, primarily driven by a $288.8 million increase in time deposits, offset by decreases of $43.7 million in noninterest-bearing deposits and $5.7 million in money market deposits. Noninterest-bearing deposits, as a percentage of total deposits, decreased to 27.2% from 33.2%. The composition shift to time deposits was primarily due to customers' preference for high-rate deposit products driven by market rate increases as a result of the Federal Reserve's rate increases.
