MIDDLETOWN, N.Y., October 25, 2021 – Orange County Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company” - Nasdaq: OBT), parent company of Orange Bank & Trust Co. (the “Bank”) and Hudson Valley Investment Advisors, Inc. (“HVIA”), today announced net income of $5.6 million, or $1.06 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. This compares with net income of $2.9 million, or $0.65 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the first nine months of 2021, net income increased by $7.5 million, or 91.0%, over the prior year period, to $15.8 million, or $3.33 per basic and diluted share. This compares with net income of $8.3 million, or $1.83 per basic and diluted share, for the first nine months of 2020.
“I am pleased to announce the strategic emphasis we have placed on business clients the past several years has again resulted in record quarterly earnings,” said Orange County Bancorp President & CEO, Michael Gilfeather. “For Q3 2021, net income grew over 91%, to $5.6 million, compared with the same quarter last year, continuing our recent string of record results.
The Bank also enjoyed significant growth across other key business segments,” Gilfeather continued, “including notable increases in core loans and deposits. This, again, is the result of our focus on business banking, as targeted geographic expansion has enabled us to develop close client relationships and respond to local economic conditions quickly and effectively. Improved customer and market familiarity has enabled us to reduce underwriting risk, more actively identify and pursue lending opportunities, and more efficiently manage our loan portfolio, enhancing our reputation as a valued partner in the business community. This contributed to a 17% year-over-year increase in average loans and, as we’ve earned an increasing portion of our client’s business, nearly 37% year-over-year growth in Demand Deposits during the quarter.
To leverage and bolster implementation of our successful growth strategy, in early Q3 we launched and announced completion of our initial public offering of common stock. The transaction was upsized due


to strong institutional demand and culminated in the sale of 1.15 million shares of our common stock at a price per share of $33.50, for gross proceeds of approximately $38.5 million. Our shares now trade on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “OBT”. The listing obligates us to meet enhanced financial disclosure, liquidity and corporate governance requirements, increasing transparency and making our shares accessible to a broader group of investors. Our objective is improved shareholder diversification, capital access, and trading liquidity. Success of the transaction, which attracted a number of new investors, involved contributions from every part of our organization and I couldn’t be more proud of their efforts.
The Company’s Wealth Management initiative, which launched earlier this year, also enjoyed strong growth during the quarter. Orange Wealth Management is a platform that provides comprehensive wealth management services through the Company’s Private Banking and Trust Services Division and Hudson Valley Investment Advisors (HVIA) subsidiary. Revenues grew $344 thousand or 16.7%, to $2.4 million, for the third quarter 2021 verses the same quarter last year, and are up 20.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.  Assets under management (AUM) ended Q3 at $1.26 billion, up $19.4 million for the current quarter and $67.8 million for the first nine months of 2021.
In keeping with our ongoing expansion efforts, the Bank opened a new branch in the Bronx in early July with a seasoned and well respected team in the local business community. Senior Vice President and Senior Commercial Loan Officer, Anthony Mormile, is leading this effort and we are very encouraged by the results to date. We are also on track to open a branch in Nanuet later this year , further strengthen our presence in Rockland County which, given its proximity to New Jersey, could serve as an entry point into Bergen County. In keeping with our broader growth strategy, we will remain disciplined with any future branch initiatives.
Finally, the growth we have experienced the past several years necessitated an upgrade to our data and accounting systems, which we expect to complete in November 2021. Doing so requires early termination of a vendor contract for a one-time charge of approximately $900,000, which we expect to book in Q4. We believe this conversion will provide the Bank the functionality, support and flexibility to more effectively manage our existing business and anticipated growth.”
Third Quarter and First Nine Months 2021 Financial Review
Net Income
Net income for the third quarter of 2021 was $5.6 million, an increase of $2.7 million, or 91.4%, over net income of $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2020. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $15.8 million, an increase of $7.5 million, or 91.0%, over net income of $8.3 million for the same period of 2020. Growth for the three and nine month periods in 2021 was driven primarily by increases in net interest income and decreases in the provision for loan losses, partially offset by increases in non-interest expense and provision for income taxes.
Net Interest Income
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, net interest income increased by $3.4 million, or 27.2%, to $15.9 million versus the same period last year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net interest income increased by $8.6 million, or 24.2%, to $44.3 million versus the same period last year.
Total interest income increased $3.2 million, or 23.6%, to $16.9 million and $8.1 million, or 20.6%, to $47.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, versus the corresponding periods last year. The increase in interest income was primarily due to loan growth and fees associated with PPP loan forgiveness.


Total interest expense decreased $174 thousand in the third quarter of 2021, to $980 thousand, compared to $1.2 million in the third quarter of the prior year, and decreased $561 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, to $3.0 million from $3.6 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  The decrease resulted from a reduction in deposit interest expense partially offset by an increase in interest expense due to subordinated debt issued in Q3 2020. Lower interest expense on deposits was consistent with reduction of the Fed Funds rate in the first quarter of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. 
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company recognized provisions for loan losses of $1.0 million and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to $1.2 million and $3.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The lower provisions reflected improved credit metrics and declining loan deferrals. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.40% as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Excluding PPP loans, the ratios were 1.48% and 1.49% as of the same dates.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income was $3.0 million for Q3 2021, up from $2.8 million for the prior year period, while non-interest income rose $555 thousand, or 6.6%, to $8.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 versus the same period last year. The increase was a result of continued growth of the Bank’s trust operations and HVIA asset management activities.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense was $10.9 million and $10.5 million for the third quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $451 thousand, or 4.3%, while non-interest expense of $31.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, rose $1.7 million, or 5.6%, versus the same period last year. The increase in non-interest expense for the three and nine month periods was due to our continued investment in growth. This investment consisted primarily of increases in salaries, information technology, professional fees, and deposit insurance costs, the latter due to significant growth in deposit balances. Our efficiency ratio improved to 57.90% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, from 68.43% for the same period in 2020, and to 59.51% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, from 68.13% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Income Tax Expense
Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $1.4 million, compared to $710 thousand for the same period in 2020. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $3.9 million, compared to $2.0 million for the same period in 2020. The increase for both periods was due to the increase in income before income taxes. Our effective tax rate for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2021 was 19.9% and 19.6%, respectively, versus 19.7% and 19.7%, respectively, for the same periods last year.
Financial Condition
Total consolidated assets increased $510.3 million, or 30.6%, from $1.7 billion at December 31, 2020 to $2.2 billion at September 30, 2021. The increase reflected increases in cash and due from banks, loans and investment securities.
Total cash and due from banks increased from $121.2 million at December 31, 2020 to $390.1 million at September 30, 2021, an increase of $268.8 million, or 221.8%. This increase resulted primarily from increases


in deposit balances driven by seasonal increases in municipal deposits, continued success attracting business account assets, and government efforts to increase liquidity in the economy.
Total investment securities rose $92.0 million, or 27.9%, from $330.1 million at December 31, 2020 to $422.1 million at September 30, 2021.  The increase was due to an $80.4 million increase in agency mortgage backed securities, an $11.8 million increase in municipal securities, and a $9.8 million increase in corporate subordinated debt securities, partially offset by a $10 million decrease in U.S. government securities holdings.
Total loans increased $134.8 million, or 11.7%, from $1.15 billion at December 31, 2020 to $1.29 billion at September 30, 2021.  The increase was primarily due to $142.1 million of commercial real estate loan growth. PPP loans declined by $2.5 million to $66.5 million at September 30, 2021 from $69.0 million at December 31, 2020. The majority of the remaining balance of PPP loans is subject to forgiveness.
Total deposits rose $462.6 million, to $2.0 billion, at September 30, 2021, from $1.5 billion at December 31, 2020. This increase was primarily due to additional business account activity, PPP loan proceeds, and government liquidity efforts, combined with municipal deposit growth attributable to cyclical real estate tax collections.
Stockholders’ equity increased $45.2 million, to $180.6 million, at September 30, 2021 from $135.4 million at December 31, 2020. This increase was primarily due to a $34.6 million increase in surplus reflecting net proceeds from our public offering of common stock in August, 2021. In addition, retained earnings rose  $12.9 million during the first three quarters of 2021 as a result of net income, partially offset by a $3.0 million decline in AOCI due to changes in the market value of investments held for sale.
At September 30, 2021, the Bank maintained capital ratios in excess of regulatory standards for well capitalized institutions. The Bank’s Tier 1 capital to average assets ratio was 8.27%, both common equity and Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets were 13.20%, and total capital to risk weighted assets was 14.45%.  These ratios reflect a contribution of $17.5 million of capital at the Bank level representing roughly half of the net proceeds from the Company’s public offering of common stock.
Loan Quality
At September 30, 2021, the Bank had total non-accrual loans of $3.1 million, or 0.24% of total loans, which included $697 thousand of Troubled Debt Restructured Loans (“TDRs”). The latter represents 0.05% of total loans, and was $262 thousand lower than year end 2020 due to the sale of one TDR loan. Accruing loans delinquent greater than 30 days were $2.0 million as of September 30, 2021, compared to $1.8 million at December 31, 2020. The following table shows the current status of loans deferred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Such forward looking statements may be identified by reference to a future period or periods, or by the use of forward looking terminology, such as “may,” “will,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “continue,” or similar terms or variations on those terms, or the negative of those terms. Forward looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those related to the real estate and economic environment, particularly in the market areas in which the Company operates, competitive products and pricing, fiscal and monetary policies of the U.S. Government, changes in government regulations affecting financial institutions, including regulatory fees and capital requirements, changes in prevailing interest rates, credit risk management, asset-liability management, the financial and securities markets and the availability of and costs associated with sources of liquidity. Further, given its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict what the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business and results of operations. The pandemic and related local and national economic disruption may, among other effects, continue to result in a material adverse change for the demand for our products and services; increased levels of loan delinquencies, problem assets and foreclosures; branch disruptions, unavailability of personnel and increased cybersecurity risks as employees work remotely.


The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the Company’s financial performance and could cause the Company’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements. The Company does not undertake and specifically declines any obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions that may be made to any forward looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
