“Our results for the fourth quarter of 2023 reflect solid growth in our loan portfolio, especially as our newer markets are becoming more established fixtures in their respective communities,” said Gary Head, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “A year ago, we invested in an expansion of our brand with new locations in Harrison and Jonesboro, in addition to our new bilingual banking offering, Banco Sí! We’re energized by the impact these new locations are having on new customer relationships. Coupled with the growth in Northwest Arkansas, the market where we got started, we’re operating from a position of strength as we enter 2024. We are proud of our loan and deposit growth in 2023, which strengthened our balance sheet, and we will build upon this growth to add value for our shareholders, customers, and communities.”
“Our brand of community banking is being well received in all the markets we serve, and centers on fostering new customer relationships. Whether it’s a small business account or a household account, an operating account is an integral piece to a longstanding banking relationship,” said Scott Sandlin, Chief Strategy Officer. “When entering these new markets in 2022, our goal was to build our deposit base to fund new loan activity. While rising rates changed the deposit mix as customers pursued higher yielding accounts, demand and non-interest bearing accounts remained strong. They accounted for 23.2% of total deposits, and savings and interest-bearing transaction accounts represented 35.8% of total deposits as of December 31, 2023. New relationships are fueling loan and deposit growth, and we expect this trajectory to continue.”
For the full year of 2023, net income was $2.55 million, or $2.56 per diluted share, compared to $5.62 million, or $5.63 per diluted share, for the year 2022.

Income Statement
“While funding costs remain elevated, higher asset yields contributed to a 12 basis-point expansion in NIM during the fourth quarter, compared to the preceding quarter,” said Brant Ward, President. “We anticipate our NIM will continue to stabilize over the next few quarters if interest rates remain steady or start to decline.” The Company’s NIM was 3.00% in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 2.88% in the preceding quarter and 3.79% in the fourth quarter of 2022. For the year 2023, the NIM was 3.01%, compared to 3.82% in 2022.
Net interest income was $7.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $8.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Total interest income increased 31.3% to $14.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $11.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Largely due to the increase in deposit costs, total interest expense increased to $6.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, from $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. For the full year, net interest income was $29.9 million, compared to $32.9 million in 2022.
Noninterest income increased 43.9% to $1.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $1.3 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. Wealth management fee income, the largest component of noninterest income, increased 78.3% to $998,000 during the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $560,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022. For the year, noninterest income increased 10.2% to $6.0 million, compared to $5.5 million in 2022.
Noninterest expense increased 2.4% to $8.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $7.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Higher data processing and marketing and business development fees during the fourth quarter of 2023 more than offset the decline in salaries and employee benefits during the same period. For the year, noninterest expense increased to $31.6 million, compared to $30.1 million in 2022. The increase in noninterest expense during 2023 was in part due to costs associated with the purchase of the wealth management group in Harrison in June 2023.
Balance Sheet
Total assets increased 15.3% to a record $1.133 billion at December 31, 2023, from $982.8 million at December 31, 2022, and increased 4.2% compared to $1.087 billion at September 30, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $17.6 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $11.8 million a year ago. Investment securities totaled $114.6 million at December 31, 2023, from $94.4 million a year ago.
Loans, net of allowance for credit losses, increased 13.9% to $941.2 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $826.7 million a year ago, and increased 4.9% compared to $897.2 million three months earlier.
Total deposits increased 18.3% to $959.2 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $810.6 million a year ago and increased 3.8% compared to $923.9 million at September 30, 2023. Due to the interest rate environment, the deposit mix is changing, and time deposits account for the majority of the deposit growth year-over-year.
FHLB advances increased to $45.0 million at December 31, 2023, from $31.7 million at December 31, 2022, and $37.9 million at September 30, 2023. Total stockholders’ equity increased to $79.5 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $77.5 million at December 31, 2022 and $75.3 million at September 30, 2023. Tangible book value per common share was $78.17 at December 31, 2023, up from $77.64 at December 31, 2022, and $73.61 at September 30, 2023. The increase in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) during the fourth quarter of 2023 was $3.6 million. Excluding AOCI, tangible book value per share was $86.43 at December 31, 2023.
Credit Quality
Beginning January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) methodology, which replaced the former “incurred loss” model for recognizing credit losses with an “expected loss” model. Utilizing CECL may have an impact on the Company’s allowance for credit losses going forward and may result in a lack of comparability between 2023 and 2022 quarterly periods.
The Company recorded a $575,000 provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2023, which included a $700,000 provision for credit losses on loans and $125,000 reversal of credit loss expense for off-balance sheet exposures. This compared to a $325,000 provision in the third quarter of 2023, and a $350,000 provision in the fourth quarter of 2022. For the full year 2023, the Company recorded a $1.3 million provision for credit losses, compared to a $760,000 provision for 2022.
Nonperforming loans increased during the quarter to $1.15 million, and represented 0.12% of total loans at December 31, 2023, compared to $125,000, or 0.01% at September 30, 2023, and $124,000, or 0.01% of total loans a year ago. The increase during the quarter was primarily due to two relationships, both of which are secured by 1-4 family construction projects.
“Credit quality continues to hold up, as we focus on maintaining a moderate risk profile. While nonperforming loans increased during the quarter, we believe these to be isolated credits and not reflective of the overall loan portfolio,” said Jeff Maland, Chief Risk Officer.
The allowance for credit losses was $11.4 million, or 1.20% of total loans, at December 31, 2023, compared to $10.9 million, or 1.20% of total loans, at September 30, 2023, and $9.2 million, or 1.10% of total loans, at December 31, 2022. Net loan charge-offs were $185,000 in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to net loan recoveries of $5,000 in the third quarter of 2023, and net loan recoveries of $105,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Capital
The Bank’s capital ratios continued to exceed regulatory “well-capitalized” requirements, with a Total risk-based capital ratio estimate of 12.02% and Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.56%, at December 31, 2023.
Recent Developments
The Company launched a new initiative, Banco Sí, to focus on and serve the burgeoning Hispanic and Latino communities. This new market was formed as a division of Signature Bank of Arkansas during the third quarter of 2022, and its initial location opened in downtown Rogers in a historic building at 114 South 1st Street. Development is underway for a second location in downtown Springdale, with plans to open in the second quarter of 2024. Banco Sí was launched to create economic growth and access to banking services, capital, and funds for small and midsize businesses within these communities.
During the first quarter of 2022, the Company opened its seventh market, located at 111 East Jackson Avenue in Jonesboro. This facility will serve as a temporary location for the market and marks the Company’s entry into Craighead County. According to the 2020 Census, Jonesboro had a population of 78,576 and is the fifth-largest city in Arkansas. Ground was broken on the permanent facility at 502 East Washington on September 22, 2023, and construction is well underway.
In the second quarter of 2022, the Company held its grand opening of the sixth market, Harrison, which had been operating in a temporary space for several months while the permanent space was under construction. The entry to Boone County was a new, but familiar market to the Company, as many of its shareholders reside in and around the Harrison area. According to the 2020 Census, Harrison had a population of 13,124.
