+ BETTER TOGETHER 2018 ANNUAL REPORT “We are dedicated to providing customers in our Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C. markets with a high level of service, value added technology and banking products, and a commitment to excellence.” – David W. Pijor, chairman and CEO of FVCB and FVCbank TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS 2018 was a landmark year for FVCBankcorp, Inc. FVCB completed an over-subscribed Initial Public Offering and became a member of the Nasdaq Capital Market in September 2018, and shortly thereafter, completed an acquisition of Colombo Bank (“Colombo”), while diligently working to achieve record earnings. The acquisition of Colombo helped us to achieve a strategic goal to have a physical presence in Washington, D.C. and Maryland. Lastly, in December, FVCB was added to the Russell 2000® Index, which will enhance our trading liquidity and investor visibility. In addition to all of these accomplishments, I’m pleased to report our 2018 performance. We reported consolidated net income of $10.9 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $7.7 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for 2017. This represents a 41% increase in net income year-over-year. On an operating earnings basis, which excludes merger expenses net of tax of $2.6 million in 2018 and the impact of a $2.0 million write down in the deferred tax asset as a result of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act for 2017, we recorded $13.4 million and $9.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, or $1.05 and $0.84 per diluted earnings per shares for those same periods. On a GAAP basis, return on average assets was 0.94% and return on average equity was 9.29% for the year ended December 31, 2018. For the comparable December 31, 2017 period, return on average assets was 0.80% and return on average equity was 8.63%. On an operating earnings basis, return on average assets and return on average equity for the year ended December 31, 2018 was 1.16% and 11.47%, respectively. On an operating earnings basis, return on average assets and return on average equity for the year ended December 31, 2017 was 1.01% and 10.88%, respectively. Selected Highlights • Record Earnings. For the year ended December 31, 2018, earnings increased $3.2 million, or 41%, compared to 2017. • • • • • Improved Tangible Book Value. Tangible book value per share at December 31, 2018 was $10.93, a 21% increase from $9.03 at December 31, 2017. Continued Loan Growth. Total loans, net of deferred fees, totaled $1.14 billion at December 31, 2018, an increase of $248.1 million, or 28%, from December 31, 2017. Excluding loans acquired from Colombo Bank, net loans increased $115.8, or 13%. Excluding acquired loans, average loan growth year-to-date 2018 was $134.8 million, or 17% of average loans receivable for 2018, enhancing our loan yield by 30 basis points for the year. Sound Asset Quality. Asset quality remains strong with nonperforming loans and loans past due 90 days or more as a percentage of total assets being 0.34% at December 31, 2018, compared to 0.09% at December 31, 2017. Nonperforming loans and loans past due 90 days or more totaled $3.2 million at December 31, 2018, of which $870 thousand were related to the acquisition. Strong Core Deposit Growth. Total deposits increased $234.3 million, or 25%, from December 31, 2017 to December 31, 2018. Total deposits, excluding acquired deposits and wholesale deposits, increased $127.1 million year-over-year, or 16%. Improved Efficiency Ratio. Efficiency ratio for the year ended December 31, 2018 was 55.7% excluding merger-related expenses, an improvement from 57.2% for the year ended December 31, 2017. Total assets increased to $1.35 billion compared to $1.05 billion as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, an increase of $298.4 million, or 28%. Loans receivable, net of deferred fees, totaled $1.14 billion as of December 31, 2018, compared to $888.7 million as of December 31, 2017, a year-over- year increase of $248.1 million, or 28%. Excluding the loans acquired from Colombo, loans grew $115.8 million, or 13% year-over-year, and average loans grew $134.8 million, or 17%. We consider average loan growth a better measure of the loan portfolio growth, as it directly correlates with interest income growth. This becomes increasingly important as the bank’s portfolio reflects higher levels of C&I lending, including government contract lending, in which balances outstanding can fluctuate at period ends. Total deposits increased to $1.16 billion as of December 31, 2018 compared to $928.2 million as of December 31, 2017, an increase of $234.3 million, or 25%. Total deposits, excluding acquired deposits and wholesale deposits, increased $127.1 million year-over-year, or 16%. Core deposits, which represent total deposits less wholesale deposits, increased $265.4 million or 33% year-over-year. Wholesale deposits totaled $84.4 million, or 7% of total deposits at December 31, 2018, a decrease of $31.1 million from December 31, 2017. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased 33% to $233.3 million at December 31, 2018, or 20% of total deposits, compared to $175.4 million at December 31, 2017. Excluding deposits recorded at acquisition, noninterest bearing deposits increased 18% year-over- year, or $38.8 million. Net interest income totaled $39.8 million, an increase of $7.7 million, or 24%, for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017. Our net interest margin was 3.51% and 3.43% for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The contribution of the assets and liabilities from Colombo added approximately $1.3 million to net interest income and 0.02% to the margin for the fourth quarter of 2018. Noninterest income totaled $1.7 million and $3.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Noninterest income excluding loss on sales of securities and gain on other real estate owned was $2.1 million and $1.9 million for the respective years, an increase of 12%. Fee income from fees on loans, service charges on deposits, and other fee income was $1.7 million, an increase of 91% for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to 2017. Included in loan income are fees from interest rate swaps totaling $660 thousand for 2018. In addition, the Colombo transaction added approximately $31 thousand to non-interest income for the fourth quarter of 2018. Losses on sales of securities available-for-sale totaled $462 thousand during the fourth quarter of 2018 as a result of the aforementioned reinvestment strategy. During the fourth quarter of 2017, we recorded $1.1 million related to a gain on other real estate owned. Noninterest expense totaled $26.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $19.3 million for 2017. Approximately $800 thousand of the increase in noninterest expense from 2017 is attributable to expenses associated with Colombo’s former operations, in addition to merger-related expenses of $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. During 2018, we strategically hired business development officers and back office staff to support our growth plans, and retained several employees from Colombo, including lending and branch personnel. As a result, salary and compensation related expenses increased $2.3 million, or 20%, for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $265 thousand year-over-year primarily as a result of the branch locations acquired from Colombo. Professional fees increased slightly year-over-year as a result of implementation costs related to regulatory compliance over our internal control environment. Increases in data processing and network administration, franchise taxes and other operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to 2017 is primarily growth related. Asset quality remains strong as nonperforming loans and loans ninety days or more past due totaled $3.2 million, or 0.24% of total assets, of which $870 thousand related to acquired loans. Performing troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) decreased to $203,000 at December 31, 2018, compared to $1.7 million at December 31, 2017. Nonperforming assets (including TDRs and other real estate owned) to total assets was 0.57% and 0.60% at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.81% at December 31, 2018, a decrease from 0.87% at December 31, 2018. This ratio decrease was primarily the result of the addition of $142.6 million of acquired loans. The allowance for loan losses on our originated portfolio was 0.92% of loan outstanding at December 31, 2018. The increase in the allowance was primarily attributable to modest charge-offs and specific reserves added to the allowance during 2018. The acquisition of Colombo Bank was a significant undertaking and our team has been hard at work leveraging the benefits of the combined organization. With our physical expansion into Maryland and the District of Colombia, we are attracting new clients and expanding existing relationships, introducing them to our products and technology which augments the customer experience. We are also focused on core organic growth in our legacy markets which will continue to enhance our market share and franchise value. In closing, on behalf of your Board of Directors and employees, we thank you for your continued support. I also would like to take the opportunity to thank our employees who were integral to the Company’s success in 2018. We are excited about our opportunities which will enhance financial performance and continue our strong growth for 2019. Best regards, David W.
