SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / April 16, 2020 / Seacoast Commerce Banc Holdings (OTCPINK:SCBH) ("Company"), the holding company of Seacoast Commerce Bank ("Bank"), today reported unaudited consolidated net income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020, of $3.8 million versus 2019 first quarter unaudited consolidated net income of $3.5 million, a 7.7% increase. On a per share basis, net income increased 6.4% to $0.39 per share versus $0.37 per share. Additionally, the Company reported first quarter return on average tangible common equity (ROATCE) and return on average assets (ROAA) of 15.88% and 1.34% respectively, compared to 16.90% and 1.38% for the first quarter of 2019.
Richard M. Sanborn, President & Chief Executive Officer, commented, "While we are reporting another good, consistent quarter, we know the effects of COVID-19 are going to have a significant impact on our whole nation going forward. While no one can predict the length of the current Governmental mandated shutdowns, we all know that at some point, we will get back to business, and we will be prepared. In the meantime, some important events have transpired that will be profoundly beneficial to our bank and our clients. With the passage of the CARES Act in March, or Stimulus Bill #3, all of our current SBA loan clients, and all new SBA loan clients between March 27, 2020 and September 27, 2020, will have their loan payments made for them for the next six months. This six-month loan payment "grant" will give all our SBA clients time to get over the disaster "hump", re-open, and return to generating revenue. In addition to the six-month loan payment grant, our clients are also applying for the SBA Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan, which will give them additional needed monies to assist with payroll, and other qualified expenses, which if used properly, will also be forgiven. In essence, our SBA loan clients are going to get six months of free loan payments and 2.5 months of payroll covered for them. As we have always been almost exclusively an SBA focused bank, Seacoast will benefit much more than other banks that do not have a focused SBA client base. Our business model is again proving to be a superior model."
Allan W. Arendsee, Chairman of the Board, stated, "The board of directors is beyond grateful for the work our staff is doing. They are working long hours, many seven days a week, assisting clients with loan deferrals and paycheck protection loans. We know the work our staff is doing is literally saving everything for some of our clients. The board of directors is 100% committed to putting people ahead of profits during this national disaster."
