Arrow Reports $12.0 million in Q2 Net Income, Loan Growth of $108 Million

GLENS FALLS, N.Y. (July 27, 2022) – Arrow Financial Corporation (NasdaqGS® – AROW) announced financial results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022. Net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $12.0 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.75.

Loan growth was strong in the second quarter of 2022, with gross loans increasing by $108 million. Excluding Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, which decreased by $17 million, loans grew by $125 million in the quarter.

“Arrow had a strong second quarter with total loan balances at June 30, 2022 reaching a record high," said Arrow President and CEO Thomas J. Murphy. "I commend the Arrow Team for their outstanding efforts and strong work ethic. While economic challenges are expected this year, I am confident in our direction as a Company and our ability to deliver strong results for our shareholders, our customers and our communities.”

For the second quarter of 2022, net income was $12.0 million compared to $13.3 million for the second quarter of 2021. The year-over-year decline in second quarter net income was primarily due to:

•An increase in the provision expense for credit losses to $905 thousand for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to $263 thousand in the second quarter of 2021.

•Net gain on sale of loans was lower by $615 thousand when comparing year-over-year quarters.

•A decrease of $2.6 million in income earned on PPP loans included as part of net interest income in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Second Quarter Highlights

Earnings:

•Net income was $12.0 million.

•Net interest margin was 3.02%.

•Return on average assets (ROA) was 1.20%.

•Return on average equity (ROE) was 13.44%.

•Diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $0.75 for the second quarter.

•Second-quarter revenue was consistent to the prior-year comparative quarter.

•Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2022 were $476 thousand as compared to $93 thousand for the comparable 2021 quarter.

•Net Interest Margin: Net interest margin was 3.02% for the quarter, compared to 3.08% for the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in net interest margin from the prior year was primarily due to the decrease in the amount of PPP loan interest and related fees recognized in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the comparable quarter of 2021. Net interest margin, excluding PPP income, increased from the comparable prior year quarter from 2.86% to 2.98% The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased slightly primarily due to the repricing of municipal deposits.

4.	Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Financial Institutions often use the "efficiency ratio", a non-GAAP ratio, as a measure of expense control. Arrow believes the efficiency ratio provides investors with information that is useful in understanding its financial performance. Arrow defines efficiency ratio as the ratio of noninterest expense to net gross income (which equals tax-equivalent net interest income plus noninterest income, as adjusted).
5.	For the current quarter, all of the regulatory capital ratios in the table above, as well as the Total Risk-Weighted Assets and Common Equity Tier 1 Capital amounts listed in the table below, are estimates based on, and calculated in accordance with, bank regulatory capital rules. All prior quarters reflect actual results. The CET1 ratio at June 30, 2022 listed in the tables (i.e., 13.14%) exceeds the sum of the required minimum CET1 ratio plus the fully phased-in Capital Conservation Buffer (i.e., 7.00%).
