Management Commentary
"Record earnings in the fourth quarter of 2021 contributed to a record year of earnings and growth at The Community Financial Corporation," stated William J. Pasenelli, Chief Executive Officer. "Our work over the past few years has successfully repositioned the Bank and is delivering on our commitments to our communities, our customers, and our shareholders. Efforts in Southern Maryland have solidified our market share and improved our deposit franchise. Expansion into new markets and products has accelerated our loan growth and delivered five consecutive quarters of record earnings. Our persistent focus on credit quality and resolution of long-standing classified assets has reduced classified assets to $5.2 million, their lowest level since before 2008. I am proud of everything we have accomplished and believe we are exceptionally well-positioned to continue to build on these improved results as we expand into new markets."
"Investments in technology have begun to deliver growth in non-interest income, increased efficiency and improved customer service," stated James M. Burke, President. "We anticipate these technology initiatives will continue to drive results and facilitate our expansion into new markets and products. Our growth in Virginia continues ahead of plan as we open our new branch in Spotsylvania. We continue to expect net loan growth of between 8% and 10% in 2022."
During the second quarter of 2021, the Bank introduced a new residential mortgage program and a retail and commercial credit card program that merge the technology and expertise of two proven FinTech firms with our business development team's demonstrated capabilities. The Company expects these programs to improve non-interest income and interest income beginning in 2022-2023. The Bank's credit card program balances increased from approximately $50,000 at June 30, 2021 to just over $1.6 million at December 31, 2021.
The Bank's expansion into Virginia significantly contributed to our growth over the last five years. Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania and surrounding areas provide significant opportunities for continued organic growth supported by our efficient operating model and ability to leverage technology. At December 31, 2021, loans in the greater Fredericksburg, Virginia area accounted for approximately 49% of the Bank's outstanding portfolio loans. Portfolio loans include all loan portfolios except the U.S. SBA PPP loan portfolio. In addition, Fredericksburg branch deposits were $93.2 million with an average cost of deposits of four basis points.
On April 21, 2021, the Bank purchased its second full-service branch location in Virginia at 5831 Plank Road, Spotsylvania. The full-service branch is expected to open in the second quarter of 2022 and will provide banking, lending and wealth management services with a focus on digital banking.
Effective March 31, 2021, the Bank consolidated its St. Patrick's Drive branch in Waldorf, Maryland into the Bank's nearby main office branch. This realignment of our branches will enable the Company to serve a wider customer base. The net financial impact of the new Spotsylvania branch and the closing of the St. Patrick's Drive branch is expected to be neutral to the Company's expense run rate.
On December 8, 2021, the Company announced that effective August 31, 2022, James M. Burke will succeed William J. Pasenelli as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank. On August 31, 2022, Mr. Pasenelli will retire from his executive roles and as a member of the Board of Directors of each of the Company and the Bank. In connection with the foregoing announcements, on December 8, 2021, Mr. Pasenelli and the Company entered into a Retirement and Consulting Agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which Mr. Pasenelli will provide the Company with consulting and advisory services through August 31, 2023.
During the third quarter of 2021, the Company completed its repurchase of $7.0 million of shares of the Company's common stock. Pursuant to the repurchase plan announced on October 20, 2020 (the "2020 Repurchase Plan"), the Company was authorized by the Board of Directors to use up to $7.0 million of the proceeds raised in its October 2020 $20.0 million subordinated debt offering to repurchase up to 300,000 outstanding shares of common stock. Between November 2020 and August 2021, 200,550 shares were repurchased at a total cost of approximately $6.98 million. On December 9, 2021, the Company announced its Board of Directors approved the resumption of repurchases allowed under the 2020 Stock Purchase Plan. The Company may repurchase the 99,450 shares remaining under the October 2020 stock repurchase plan using up to $4.0 million in the aggregate and up to $1.5 million in the aggregate on a quarterly basis.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income increased for the three months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020. Net interest margin of 3.22% for the three months ended December 31, 2021 decreased 18 basis points from 3.40% for the comparable period. The increase in net interest income resulted primarily from decreases in interest expense from lower funding costs and increased interest income from larger loan and investment average balances. These increases to net interest income were partially offset by the impacts of lower interest-earning asset repricing.
Net interest income increased for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. Net interest margin of 3.34% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 was 2 basis points lower than the 3.36% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. The increase in net interest income resulted primarily from decreases in interest expense from lower funding costs and increased interest income from larger loan and investment average balances. These increases to net interest income were partially offset by the impacts of lower interest-earning asset repricing. Interest earning asset yields decreased 37 basis points from 3.92% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 to 3.55% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. The Company's cost of funds decreased 36 basis points from 0.57% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 to 0.21% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.
Excluding the recognition of interest income related to U.S. SBA PPP loan forgiveness, compression of our net interest margin is likely to continue in the first quarter of 2022 as interest-earning assets reprice faster than interest-bearing liabilities and the Bank continues to invest excess liquidity into securities. The speed at which the Federal Reserve may increase interest rates could impact the Company's net interest margins in 2022. Average investments and interest-bearing cash accounts have increased $221.7 million from $303.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 to $525.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. We expect U.S. SBA PPP loan forgiveness to positively impact margins and net interest income in the first quarter of 2022 with the recognition of remaining net deferred fees.
For the fourth quarter of 2021 interest income decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 as asset yields declined and the accelerated interest recognition following the forgiveness of U.S. SBA PPP loans slowed. Increased interest income from larger average loan and investment balances partially offset the slight decrease in interest income for the comparable periods. For 2021, interest income decreased from significantly lower asset yields partially offset by increased interest income from larger average balances and U.S. SBA PPP loan income. Interest income from the Company's participation in the U.S. SBA PPP program was $0.8 million and $5.2 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021 compared to $1.3 million and $2.7 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2020. For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021, net interest margin increased 10 and 13 basis points as a result of net U.S. SBA PPP loan interest income recognition compared to decreased net interest margin of six basis points and increased net interest margin of three basis points for the comparable periods in 2020. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, net interest margin of 3.28% increased 13 basis points as result of net U.S. SBA PPP loan interest income.
The Company's net interest margin was stable in 2020 after adjusting for U.S. SBA PPP loan and funding activity. The sharp decline in interest rates in 2020 and 2021 not only reduced interest income on floating-rate loans, liquid interest-earning assets and investments, but has also reduced competitive pressures and depositor expectations concerning deposit interest rates. The repricing of time deposits, the increase in noninterest-bearing accounts as a percentage of total deposits and lower costs for transaction deposit accounts all contributed to lowering the Bank's cost of funds in 2020 and 2021. Cost of funds decreased from 0.42% for the three months ended December 31, 2020 to 0.17% for the three months ended December 31, 2021. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company's cost of funds was 0.21%. Cost of funds decreased from 0.57% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 to 0.21% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.
In the last six months of 2020, FHLB advances of $30.0 million were repaid early with a 2.2% average rate. Prepayment fees increased interest expense $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. FHLB advances of $15.0 million were repaid early with a 0.4% average rate in the third quarter of 2021, increasing interest expense $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020. The decrease for the comparable periods was primarily due to gains on the sale of investment securities in the fourth quarter of 2020 partially offset by increases in service charge income, interest rate protection referral fee income and miscellaneous fee income. In the fourth quarter of 2021, miscellaneous loan charges increased $0.1 million due to prepayment penalty income related to $4.9 million in loan payoffs. Noninterest income as a percentage of average assets was 0.40% and 0.46%, respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Noninterest income decreased for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to larger gains on the sale of investment securities in 2020, decreased interest rate protection referral fee income, unrealized losses on equity securities, and a loss on the sale of impaired loans. These decreases to noninterest income were partially offset by increased service charge income and miscellaneous fee income. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Bank sold non-accrual and classified commercial real estate and residential mortgage loans with an amortized cost, net of charge-offs, of $9.1 million and recognized a loss on the sale of $191,000. Noninterest income as a percentage of assets was 0.36% and 0.42%, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2021, increased compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020 as increased compensation and benefits, professional fees and data processing costs were partially offset by decreased FDIC insurance, occupancy expense and OREO expenses. Compensation and benefits increased for the comparable periods primarily due to increased incentive compensation resulting from improvements in profitability and asset quality as well as the Company's decision to pay employees for unused vacation in December 2021 that was not available to carryover into 2022. Data processing and professional fees have increased due to the Bank's larger balance sheet, more customer transaction activity and investments in technology, new products and services. FDIC insurance and OREO costs decreased due to improved credit trends. Occupancy expense decreased primarily due to the consolidation of the St. Patrick's Drive branch in March 2021.
During the first quarter of 2021, the Company reported an expense of $1.3 million related to an isolated wire transfer fraud incident. Our investigation has found no evidence that information systems of the Bank were compromised or that employee fraud was involved. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company recovered $0.2 million of the funds transferred and submitted an insurance claim. Any recovery of insurance proceeds would be recognized in the quarter received.
The Company's efficiency ratio was 53.10% for the three months ended December 31, 2021 compared to 51.64% for the three months ended December 31, 2020. The Company's net operating expense ratio was 1.38% for the three months ended December 31, 2021 compared to 1.37% for the three months ended December 31, 2020.
Including the wire transfer fraud expense, the Company quarterly expense run rate for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 averaged $9.8 million. The Company's quarterly expense run rate, excluding the wire transfer fraud expense, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 averaged $9.5 million. Management's projected quarterly expense run rate for the first quarter of 2022 is estimated between $9.6 million and $9.8 million and includes base compensation increases given to select employee groups in January 2022 to address local wage competitive pressures.
Noninterest expense increased $1.1 million or 3.0% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. The increase in noninterest expense for the comparable periods was primarily due to the $1.3 million wire fraud reported in the first quarter and increases in compensation and benefits, professional fees and data processing costs. These increases to noninterest expense were partially offset by decreased OREO, FDIC insurance and occupancy expense. Compensation and benefits increased for the comparable periods primarily due to modest increases in base compensation, increased incentive compensation, higher 2021 healthcare costs as well as the Company's decision to pay employees for unused vacation in December 2021 that was not available to carryover into 2022. Data processing and professional fees have increased due to the Bank's larger balance sheet, more customer transaction activity and investments in technology, new products and services. FDIC insurance and OREO costs decreased due to improved credit trends. Occupancy expense decreased primarily due to the closure of the St. Patrick's Drive branch in March 2021.
Compensation and benefits for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were reduced $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the allocation of deferred costs for U.S. SBA PPP loans originated.
The Company's efficiency ratio was 52.67% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 compared to 54.81% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. The Company's net operating expense ratios were 1.44% and 1.49%, respectively for the comparable periods. The efficiency and net operating expense ratios have improved (decreased) as the Company has been able to generate more net interest income and noninterest income while controlling expense growth.
Income Tax Expense
For the three months and year ended December 31, 2021 the effective tax rate was 24.9% and 25.2%. The Company's consolidated effective tax rate was 25.8% and 21.8% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2020. The Company's new state tax apportionment approach was implemented during the first quarter of 2020 and included the impact of amended income tax filings of the Company and Bank. Management evaluated the tax position and determined the change in tax position qualified as a change in estimate under FASB ASC Section 250. The following table shows a breakdown of income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 split between the apportionment adjustment and a normalized 2020 income tax provision:

Balance Sheet
Assets
Total assets increased $300.9 million, or 14.8%, to $2.3 billion at December 31, 2021 compared to total assets of $2.0 billion at December 31, 2020, primarily due to increased cash of $62.6 million and investments of $250.3 million. The increase in cash and investments was principally driven by increases to our customer deposits accounts and cash received from the SBA from the forgiveness of U.S. SBA PPP loans. In addition, net loans decreased $7.3 million. The Company's loan pipeline was approximately $160.0 million at December 31, 2021.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, total net loans, which include portfolio loans and U.S. SBA PPP loans, increased 4.4% annualized or $17.1 million from $1,569.6 million at September 30, 2021 to $1,586.8 million at December 31, 2021. Gross portfolio loans increased 12.0% annualized or $45.9 million from $1,533.1 million at September 30, 2021 to $1,578.9 million at December 31, 2021. Portfolio loans increased $74.7 million or 5.0% in 2021, growing from $1,504.3 million at December 31, 2020 to $1,578.9 million at December 31, 2021.
Non-owner occupied commercial real estate as a percentage of risk-based capital at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $813.0 million or 331% and $695.8 million or 316%, respectively. Construction loans as a percentage of risk-based capital at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $140.4 million or 57% and $139.2 million or 63%, respectively.
Funding
Total deposits increased $310.6 million or 17.8% at December 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020. The increase included a $337.0 million increase to transaction deposits offset by a $26.4 million decrease to time deposits. Non-interest-bearing demand deposits increased $83.7 million or 23.12% at December 31, 2021, representing 21.68% of deposits, compared to 20.74% of deposits at December 31, 2020. Customer deposit balances have increased during the last two years due to sales efforts as well as lower levels of consumer and business spending related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Stockholders' Equity and Regulatory Capital
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, total stockholders' equity increased $10.1 million. Increases in equity included net income of $25.9 million and stock-based compensation and ESOP activity $0.9 million. These increases to equity were partially offset by common stock repurchases of $7.0 million, common dividends paid of $3.2 million and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $6.5 million due to a reduction in unrealized gains in the investment portfolio.
The Company's common equity to assets ratio decreased to 8.94% at December 31, 2021 from 9.77% at December 31, 2020. The Company's ratio of tangible common equity ("TCE") to tangible assets decreased to 8.48% at December 31, 2021 from 9.22% at December 31, 2020 (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules). The decrease in the TCE ratio was due primarily to significant increases in cash, investments and loans.
In April 2020, banking regulators issued an interim final rule that excluded U.S. SBA PPP loans pledged under the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF") from the calculation of the leverage ratio. The Bank did not have any PPPLF advances at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. In addition, the interim final rule excluded U.S. SBA PPP loans from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios by assigning a zero percent risk weight. The Company remains well capitalized at December 31, 2021 with a Tier 1 capital to average assets ("leverage ratio") of 9.23% at December 31, 2021 compared to 9.56% at December 31, 2020.
Asset Quality
Allowance for loan losses ("ALLL") and provision for loan losses ("PLL") and Non-Performing Assets
The Company's allowance methodology considers quantitative historical loss factors and qualitative factors to determine the estimated level of incurred losses in the Company's loan portfolios. The ALLL increased in 2020 primarily due to the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to provide for economic uncertainty. ALLL levels decreased to 1.17% of portfolio loans at December 31, 2021 compared to 1.29% at December 31, 2020. At December 31, 2021, the Company's ALLL decreased $1.0 million or 5.2% to $18.4 million from $19.4 million at December 31, 2020.
The Company recorded $0.6 million of PLL for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 compared to $10.7 million for the twelve months ended months ended December 31, 2020. Net charge-offs also decreased for the comparable periods from $2.2 million in 2020 to $1.6 million in 2021.
The Company's general allowance was stable at $18.1 million at December 31, 2020 increasing modestly to $18.2 million at December 31, 2021. The stability in the general allowance was primarily due to improvements in some qualitative factors partially offset by 2021 growth in the higher risk commercial portfolios. During the first quarter of 2021, the Bank sold non-accrual and classified commercial real estate and residential mortgage loans with an amortized cost of $9.1 million, net of charge-offs of $1.4 million, and recognized a loss on the sale of $191,000. In the third quarter of 2021, the Bank resolved $7.8 million of non-accrual loans through $0.5 million in charge-offs that resulted in a loan sale and a payoff. The Company's resolution of these impaired loans decreased the specific reserve, improved asset quality and improved several ALLL qualitative factors. The Company's specific reserves decreased $1.1 million from $1.4 million at December 31, 2020 to $0.3 million at December 31, 2021.
Management believes that loans included in the COVID-19 deferral program in 2020 and 2021 are more likely to default in the future and that the identification and resolution of problem credits could be delayed. As of December 31, 2021, there were no COVID-19 deferral agreements compared to $35.4 million or 2.4% of gross portfolio loans at December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2021 there were previously COVID-19 deferred loans of $3.9 million (4 relationships - with $3.8 million current and $0.1 million delinquent) deemed to be non-accrual and substandard based on internal reviews. As of December 31, 2020 there were $3.4 million of COVID-19 deferred loans deemed to be non-accrual and substandard. In our evaluation of previously deferred loans, we considered the length of the deferral period, the type and amount of collateral and customer industries.
Gross U.S. SBA PPP loans at December 31, 2021 totaled $27.3 million (201 loans), a decrease of $83.1 million compared to December 31, 2020. U.S. SBA PPP loans are guaranteed by the SBA and the Bank's allowance for loan loss does not include an allowance for U.S. SBA PPP loans.
Management believes that the allowance is adequate at December 31, 2021.
During 2020, classified assets decreased $12.3 million. Asset quality has continued to improve in 2021 with the resolution of $16.9 million in non-accrual and impaired loans through loan sales and negotiated payoffs as well as the resolution of $3.1 million in OREO. Management remains committed to expeditiously resolve non-performing or substandard credits that are not likely to become performing or passing credits in a reasonable timeframe.
Classified assets decreased $17.1 million from $22.4 million at December 31, 2020 to $5.2 million at December 31, 2021. Management considers classified assets to be an important measure of asset quality. The Company's risk rating process for classified loans is an important input into the Company's allowance methodology. Risk ratings are expected to be an important indicator in assessing ongoing credit risks of COVID-19 previously deferred loans.
Non-accrual loans and OREO to total gross portfolio loans and OREO decreased 94 basis points from 1.42% at December 31, 2020 to 0.48% at December 31, 2021. Non-accrual loans, OREO and TDRs to total assets decreased 73 basis points from 1.08% at December 31, 2020 to 0.35% at December 31, 2021.
Non-accrual loans decreased $10.6 million from $18.2 million at December 31, 2020 to $7.6 million at December 31, 2021. Non-accrual loans of $6.7 million (87%) were current with all payments of principal and interest with specific reserves of $0.3 million at December 31, 2021. Delinquent non-accrual loans were $0.9 million (13%) with no specific reserves at December 31, 2021. There were no OREO balances at December 31, 2021 compared to $3.1 million at December 31, 2020.
The Company is planning for adoption of the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model or ASU 2016-13 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments". Our CECL model has been substantially developed and the third-party model validation is complete. We conducted parallel runs of the CECL loss estimation model and the Company's existing incurred loss model throughout 2021. We are refining the qualitative and forecasting components of the CECL model. ASU 2016-13 will also require the establishment of an allowance for expected credit losses for certain debt securities and other financial assets.
The Company is required to adopt ASU No. 2016-13 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company expects to adopt ASU No. 2016-13 in the first quarter of 2022. Management expects to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for credit losses as of the January 1, 2022. At this time, we expect our implementation of CECL to increase our reserve for credit losses and we plan to provide an estimate of the range of the impact of adoption in the Company's Annual 10-K filing during the first quarter of 2022. The one-time cumulative adjustment is not expected materially impact capital.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES (UNAUDITED)
Pre-Tax Pre-Provision ("PTPP") Income, PTPP Return on Average Assets ("ROAA"), PTPP Return on Average Common Equity ("ROACE"), and Return on Average Tangible Common Equity ("ROATCE")
Management believes that PTPP income, which reflects the Company's profitability before income taxes and loan loss provisions, allows investors to better assess the Company's operating income and expenses in relation to the Company's core operating revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with credit provisions and different state income tax rates for comparable institutions. ROATCE is computed by dividing net earnings applicable to common shareholders by average tangible common shareholders' equity. Management believes that ROATCE is meaningful because it measures the performance of a business consistently, whether acquired or internally developed. ROATCE is a non-GAAP measure and may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Management also believes that during a crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic, this information is useful as the impact of the pandemic on the loan loss provisions of various institutions will likely vary based on the geography of the communities served by a particular institution.
