Mark DeFazio, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented,

“I am pleased to report on an operating basis MCB had a record year with adjusted net income of $94.4 million. The commercial bank along with our banking-as-a-service initiatives saw growth along all lines of business contributing to our operating results.

“While 2022 was a challenging year for our industry, we worked through rising interest rates, increased cost of funds, fierce competition for deposits, a material correction in the digital assets industry, and with that, increased regulatory scrutiny. To that end, we have reserved $35 million toward a potential resolution of an investigation by the Federal Reserve and the New York DFS relating to matters involving a fintech client MCB banked in 2020. We look forward to putting this matter behind us, which is more fully discussed in an SEC filing we are making today.

“On balance, we successfully covered tremendous ground in 2022 and are entering 2023 in a strong position to support our clients with enhanced resilience and strong capital levels.”

Balance Sheet

The Company had total assets of $6.3 billion at December 31, 2022, a decrease of $154.7 million, or 2.4%, from September 30, 2022, and a decrease of $849.0 million, or 11.9% from December 31, 2021.

Total cash and cash equivalents were $257.4 million at December 31, 2022, a decrease of $451.4 million, or 63.7%, from September 30, 2022 and a decrease of $2.1 billion, or 89.1%, from December 31, 2021. The decrease from September 30, 2022, reflected net loan growth of $220.9 million and net deposit outflows of $453.6 million partially offset by $250.0 million in Fed funds purchased and Federal Home Loan Bank of New York advances. The decrease from December 31, 2021, reflected the $1.1 billion deployment into loans and securities and the $1.2 billion outflow of deposits.

Total loans, net of deferred fees and unamortized costs, were $4.8 billion, an increase of $223.2 million, or 4.8%, from September 30, 2022, and an increase of $1.1 billion, or 29.7% from December 31, 2021. Loan production was $411.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $423.6 million for the prior linked quarter and $411.0 million for the prior year period. The increase in total loans from September 30, 2022, was due primarily to an increase of $192.5 million in commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans (including owner-occupied) and $39.4 million in commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loans. The increase in total loans from December 31, 2021, was due primarily to an increase of $765.2 million in CRE loans (including owner-occupied) and $254.1 million in C&I loans.

Other assets were $148.3 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $49.4 million from September 30, 2022, and an increase of $91.4 million from December 31, 2021. The increase in Other assets from September 30, 2022 was due primarily to the adoption of ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842), which required the Company to recognize lease assets, and liabilities, on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. The increase in Other assets from December 31, 2021, was due primarily to the adoption of ASU 2016-02 and the recognition of deferred tax assets related to the unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities.

Total deposits were $5.3 billion, a decrease of $453.6 million, or 7.9% from September 30, 2022, and a decrease of $1.2 billion or 18.0% from December 31, 2021. The decrease from September 30, 2022, was due to a decrease of $268.4 million in digital currency business deposits and aggregate net decrease of $185.2 million in all other deposit verticals. The decrease in digital currency business deposits reflects the Company’s decision to fully exit the crypto-asset related vertical in light of recent developments in the crypto-asset industry and material changes in the regulatory environment regarding banks’ involvement in crypto-asset related businesses. The decrease in deposits from December 31, 2021, was primarily due to a decrease of $1.0 billion in digital currency business deposits and $789.7 million in bankruptcy trustee and property manager deposits, partially offset by an aggregate net increase of $658.3 in all other deposit verticals. Non-interest-bearing demand deposits were 45.9% of total deposits at December 31, 2022, compared to 53.4% at September 30, 2022 and 57.0% at December 31, 2021.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, was $54.3 million, an increase of $0.5 million, from September 30, 2022, and $46.8 million from December 31, 2021. The increases were due to the prevailing interest rate environment, which increased the unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities, partially offset by the increases in unrealized gains on cash flow hedges prior to their termination in the third quarter of 2022.

At December 31, 2022, the Company had available borrowing capacity of $984.4 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank, and an available line of credit of $137.6 million under the Federal Reserve Bank of New York discount window. The Company and the Bank each met all the requirements to be considered “Well-Capitalized” under applicable regulatory guidelines. Total non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans were 366.0% of total risk-based capital at December 31, 2022, compared to 343.3% and 343.4% at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $63.9 million, an increase of $574,000 from the prior linked quarter and $19.1 million from the prior year period. The increase from the prior linked quarter was primarily due to the $291.7 million increase in the average balance of loans and the 68 basis point increase in the average yield for loans partially offset by the $551.3 million decrease in the average balance of overnight deposits and a higher cost of funds.

Net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 4.05% compared to 3.85% and 2.59% for the prior linked quarter and prior year period, respectively. The 20 basis point increase for the prior linked quarter was driven largely by the increase in the average balance of loans and the increase in loan and overnight deposit yields partially offset by the decrease in the average balance of overnight deposits and a higher cost of funds. The 146 basis point increase for the prior year period was driven largely by the increase in the average balance of loans and the increase in loan yields partially offset by the higher cost of funds.

Net interest margin for the year 2022 was 3.49% compared to 2.77% for the prior year. The 72 basis point increase was driven largely by the increase in the average balance of loans and the increase in loan and overnight deposit yields partially offset by the decrease in the average balance of overnight deposits and a higher cost of funds.

The increase from the prior linked quarter was driven by higher Global Payments Group (“GPG”) revenues and other services charges and fees. The decrease from the prior year period was driven by decreases in GPG revenues.

Non-interest income was $26.6 million for the year 2022, an increase of $2.9 million from the prior year, driven by driven primarily by increases in GPG revenue from higher fintech Banking-as-a-Service transactions.

Non-interest expense was $66.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $35.5 million from the prior linked quarter and $43.3 million from the prior year period. The increase from the prior linked quarter was due primarily to the $35.0 million regulatory settlement reserve and the increase in compensation and benefits due to the increase in the number of full-time employees that is in line with revenue growth, partially offset by lower professional fees. The increase from the prior year period was due primarily to the $35.0 million regulatory settlement reserve, the increase in compensation and benefits due to the increase in the number of full-time employees, and by an increase in professional fees.

Non-interest expense was $148.7 million for the year 2022, an increase of $61.4 million from the prior year. The increase was driven by the $35.0 million regulatory settlement reserve, an increase in compensation and benefits due to the increase in the number of full-time employees that is in line with revenue growth, and an increase in professional fees.

Income Tax Expense

The effective tax rate for the year 2022 was 38.7% compared to 32.4% for the prior year period. The effective tax rate increased from the prior year due to the $35.0 million regulatory settlement reserve and other discrete tax items.

The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.00% at December 31, 2022 compared to 0.00% at September 30, 2022 and 0.28% at December 31, 2021, respectively.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), this earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information to investors in understanding the Company’s operating performance and trends. These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations and are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of results reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of non-GAAP/adjusted financial measures disclosed in this earnings release to the comparable GAAP measures are provided in the following tables:
