River City Bank Achieves Remarkable Second Quarter Earnings of $14.4 Million and Impressive Year-to-Date Results of $27.3 Million
SACRAMENTO, Calif., July 19, 2023 (VSNewsNetwork.com) - River City Bank (the Bank) has announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2023, reporting a net income of $14.4 million, or $9.65 per diluted share. This represents a significant increase from the $8.9 million, or $5.98 per diluted share, reported for the same period in 2022.
The Bank's strong performance continued throughout the first six months of 2023, with a net income of $27.3 million, or $18.28 per diluted share. This compares favorably to the $25.3 million, or $17.08 per diluted share, reported for the six months ending June 30, 2022. The Bank achieved a healthy 14.8% return on equity capital and 1.35% return on assets for the first half of 2023.
Key factors contributing to the positive financial results include higher loan balances, which increased net interest income, and a prudent provision for credit losses on loans. The Bank's commercial real estate portfolio, specifically the office segment, remains a concern due to ongoing deterioration. On the other hand, the Bank's liquidity remains robust, with total deposits growing from $3.4 billion to $3.6 billion. The Bank plans to expand its commercial real estate loan portfolio by focusing on multi-family, retail, and industrial properties while exploring opportunities in western states outside of California.
River City Bank maintains a strong capital position, with a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of 9.3% as of June 30, 2023, well above the regulatory requirement for being Well Capitalized.
