PB BANKSHARES, INC. ANNOUNCES 2023 FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

Coatesville, Pennsylvania, April 26, 2023 — PB Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PBBK), the holding company for Presence Bank (the “Bank”), reported unaudited net income of $409,000 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to $245,000, for the same period in 2022. Earnings per share (EPS) and diluted EPS were $0.16 for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $0.10 for the same period in 2022.

Income Statement

Net interest income was $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 2022. The period over period increase of 38.4% for the first quarter 2023 was primarily due to the increase in interest income on loans driven by the increase in average loans, as well as increases in cash and federal funds sold interest income as a result of rising interest rates, partially offset by increases in deposit and borrowings interest expense.  

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $183,000 for the three months ended March  31, 2023 compared to $90,000 for the same period in 2022. The increase in the provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily due to loan growth during the current period and in part for including the provision for unfunded commitments of $26,000 as a result of the adoption of Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) accounting standard in the first quarter 2023. An additional partial charge-off of a previously written down commercial and industrial loan for $75,000 was taken in the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by recoveries of $15,000. Delinquencies remain benign, reserves are deemed to be adequate and the allowance coverage ratio has improved from the first quarter a year ago. The allowance for credit losses was $4.1 million, or 1.30%, of loans outstanding at March 31, 2023 and $4.0 million, or 1.31%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2022. Total non-performing assets decreased 21.4% to $824,000 at March 31, 2023 from $1.0 million at December 31, 2022.  The non-performing assets to total assets ratio improved by six basis points to 0.21% at March 31, 2023 from 0.27% as of December 31, 2022.

Noninterest income was $138,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $122,000 for the same period in 2022. The primary reason for the increase in noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was due to an unrealized gain on equity investments due to the increase in market value of the associated asset (Community Reinvestment Act equity investment) of $12,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to a $40,000 loss for the same period in 2022, representing an increase of $52,000 period over period. This increase was partially offset by a $40,000 loss on disposal of property and equipment as a result of replacing the non-depository ATMs with full functioning ATMs as a continued investment in our


Exhibit 99.1

infrastructure and technology.  The new ATMs improve the client experience by providing twenty-four hours seven days a week access to banking services.

Noninterest expense was $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 2022. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits and directors’ fees (primarily as a result of the option and stock awards expense of $134,000 in the first quarter of 2023 related to awards that were not granted until the fourth quarter of 2022).

Balance Sheet

Total assets increased $6.5 million or 1.7% to $393.0 million at March 31, 2023 from $386.5  million at December 31, 2022. The increase in assets was primarily due to increases in net loans receivable and cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by a decrease in debt securities available-for-sale. Gross loans increased $8.2 million or 2.7% to $313.6 million at March 31, 2023 from $305.4 million at December 31, 2022, primarily as a result of the increase in the commercial real estate portfolio as the Bank continues its focus on commercial lending. Management is monitoring the commercial real estate portfolio and concentration, assessing its associated risks. As part of this initiative, management is performing routine stress testing. Debt securities available-for-sale decreased $19.6 million or 37.6% to $32.5 million at March 31, 2023 as a result of short-term treasury securities purchased during 2022 maturing in the first quarter of 2023.  The maturity of the treasury securities during the first quarter of 2023 increased cash and cash equivalents $17.8 million or 103.2% to $35.0 million at March 31, 2023. Deposits increased by $5.9 million to $295.4 million at March 31, 2023 from $289.5 million at December 31, 2022 as a result of organic deposit gathering strategies. Stockholders’ equity increased $304,000 to $46.3 million at March 31, 2023 from $46.0 million at December 31, 2022 as a result of current quarter net income and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the debt securities available for sale portfolio, partially offset by a $140,000 adjustment for the adoption of CECL and stock buybacks of 35,651 shares for $498,000 in the first quarter of 2023. The remaining weighted average life of our debt securities available for sale portfolio was 1.95 years at March 31, 2023.
