For Immediate Release
Investar Holding Corporation Announces 2024 Third Quarter Results
BATON ROUGE, LA / ACCESSWIRE / October 21, 2024 / Investar Holding Corporation (“Investar”) (NASDAQ:ISTR), the holding company for Investar Bank, National Association (the “Bank”), today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Investar reported net income of $5.4 million, or $0.54 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $4.1 million, or $0.41 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, and net income of $2.8 million, or $0.28 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.
On a non-GAAP basis, core earnings per diluted common share for the third quarter of 2024 were $0.45 compared to $0.36 for the second quarter of 2024, and $0.33 for the third quarter of 2023. Core earnings exclude certain items including, but not limited to, (gain) loss on call or sale of investment securities, net, loss on sale or disposition of fixed assets, net, loss (gain) on sale of other real estate owned, net, change in the fair value of equity securities, income from a legal settlement, gain on early extinguishment of subordinated debt, and legal settlement expense (refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures tables for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP metrics).
Investar’s President and Chief Executive Officer John D’Angelo commented:
“Investar had a solid third quarter, and I am pleased with our results as we continued to execute our strategy of consistent, quality earnings through the optimization of our balance sheet. Our net interest margin improved to 2.67% as we remained focused on originating higher yielding loans and securing lower cost funding sources that are accretive to our margin. During the third quarter, we originated and renewed loans, 77% of which were variable-rate loans, at an 8.5% blended interest rate. Book value per common share and tangible book value per common share reached record highs of $24.98 and $20.73, respectively, at September 30, 2024. Our GAAP and core metrics for diluted earnings per share, return on average assets, and efficiency ratio also improved from the prior quarter.
Our efforts to focus on underwriting high quality credits that are less susceptible to the effects of a potential economic downturn are producing results. Credit quality continued to strengthen as nonperforming loans were only $4.1 million, or 0.19% of total loans at September 30, 2024.
Finally, I could not be more confident about the future of Investar. We have worked hard to optimize our asset mix and funding sources, and, as a result, we believe our liability sensitive balance sheet positions us well to benefit from potential additional rate cuts. Additionally, we are continually evaluating opportunities to optimize our physical branch and ATM footprint to deliver products and services to our customers more efficiently to improve our financial performance over time.
As always, we remain focused on shareholder value and returning capital to shareholders. We repurchased 2,000 shares of our common stock during the third quarter at an average price of $18.50 per share and increased our quarterly dividend per share by 5% compared to the second quarter.”

Nonowner-occupied loans totaled $499.3 million at September 30, 2024, an increase of $9.3 million, or 1.9%, compared to $490.0 million at June 30, 2024, and a decrease of $2.4 million, or 0.5%, compared to $501.6 million at September 30, 2023. The increase in nonowner-occupied loans compared to June 30, 2024 is primarily due to a reclassification of a $15.9 million multifamily loan to a nonowner-occupied loan and conversions of construction and development loans to nonowner-occupied loans upon completion of construction, partially offset by loan amortization. The decrease in nonowner-occupied loans compared to September 30, 2023 is primarily due to loan amortization, partially offset by the reclassification of a $15.9 million multifamily loan to a nonowner-occupied loan and conversions of construction and development loans to nonowner-occupied loans upon completion of construction.
Construction and development loans totaled $167.0 million at September 30, 2024, a decrease of $10.9 million, or 6.1%, compared to $177.8 million at June 30, 2024, and a decrease of $44.4 million, or 21.0%, compared to $211.4 million at September 30, 2023. The decrease in construction and development loans compared to June 30, 2024 is primarily due to conversions to permanent loans upon completion of construction, partially offset by the utilization of credit lines. The decrease in construction and development loans compared to September 30, 2023 is primarily due to conversions to permanent loans upon completion of construction.
Credit Quality
Nonperforming loans were $4.1 million, or 0.19% of total loans, at September 30, 2024, a decrease of $0.9 million compared to $5.0 million, or 0.23% of total loans, at June 30, 2024, and a decrease of $1.5 million compared to $5.6 million, or 0.27% of total loans, at September 30, 2023. The decrease in nonperforming loans compared to June 30, 2024 is mainly attributable to paydowns.
The allowance for credit losses was $28.1 million, or 682.0% and 1.30% of nonperforming and total loans, respectively, at September 30, 2024, compared to $28.6 million, or 576.4% and 1.32% of nonperforming and total loans, respectively, at June 30, 2024, and $29.8 million, or 534.1% and 1.42% of nonperforming and total loans, respectively, at September 30, 2023.
Investar recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $0.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to negative provisions for credit losses of $0.4 million and $34,000 for the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The negative provision for credit losses in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to net recoveries of $0.4 million, a decrease in total loans, aging of existing loans, and an improvement in the economic forecast. The negative provision for credit losses in the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in total loans and aging of existing loans. The negative provision for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to net recoveries.

The increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits, money market deposits and time deposits at September 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2024 is primarily the result of organic growth. Brokered time deposits increased to $271.7 million at September 30, 2024 from $249.4 million at June 30, 2024. Investar utilizes brokered time deposits, entirely in denominations of less than $250,000, to secure fixed cost funding and reduce short-term borrowings. At September 30, 2024, the balance of brokered time deposits remained below 10% of total assets, and the remaining weighted average duration was approximately nine months with a weighted average rate of 5.07%.
The increase in interest-bearing demand deposits, money market deposits, and time deposits at September 30, 2024 compared to September 30, 2023 is primarily the result of organic growth resulting from a deposit campaign. The decrease in noninterest-bearing demand deposits and savings deposits at September 30, 2024 compared to September 30, 2023 is primarily due to customers drawing down on their existing deposit accounts and shifts into interest-bearing deposit products with higher rates. Brokered time deposits increased to $271.7 million at September 30, 2024 from $197.7 million at September 30, 2023. We utilized shorter term brokered time deposits, which were laddered to provide flexibility, to fund a portion of the purchase of commercial and industrial revolving lines of credit with an unpaid principal balance of $127.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Stockholders’ Equity
Stockholders’ equity was $245.5 million at September 30, 2024, an increase of $15.3 million compared to June 30, 2024, and an increase of $36.8 million compared to September 30, 2023. The increase in stockholders’ equity compared to June 30, 2024 is primarily attributable to a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to an increase in the fair value of the Bank’s available for sale securities portfolio and net income for the quarter. The increase in stockholders’ equity compared to September 30, 2023 is primarily attributable to a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to an increase in the fair value of the Bank’s available for sale securities portfolio and net income for the last twelve months.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the third quarter of 2024 totaled $17.9 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 3.8%, compared to the second quarter of 2024, and an increase of $0.4 million, or 2.2%, compared to the third quarter of 2023. Total interest income was $36.8 million, $35.8 million and $33.2 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. Total interest expense was $19.0 million, $18.6 million and $15.7 million for the corresponding periods. Included in net interest income for the quarters ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 is $13,000, $18,000, and $36,000, respectively, of interest income accretion from the acquisition of loans. Also included in net interest income for the quarters ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 are interest recoveries of $79,000, $44,000 and $0.1 million, respectively.
Investar’s net interest margin was 2.67% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to 2.62% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and 2.66% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The increase in net interest margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was driven by a six basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by a three basis point increase in the overall cost of funds. The increase in net interest margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was driven by a 46 basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by a 54 basis point increase in the overall cost of funds.
The yield on interest-earning assets was 5.51% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to 5.45% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and 5.05% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The increase in the yield on interest-earning assets compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to an eight basis point increase in the yield on the loan portfolio. The increase in the yield on interest-earning assets compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by a 51 basis point increase in the yield on the loan portfolio.
Exclusive of the interest income accretion from the acquisition of loans and interest recoveries, adjusted net interest margin was 2.66% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to 2.61% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and 2.64% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The adjusted yield on interest-earning assets was 5.50% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to 5.44% and 5.03% for the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. Refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures table for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP metrics.
The cost of deposits increased seven basis points to 3.45% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to 3.38% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and increased 72 basis points compared to 2.73% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The increase in the cost of deposits compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 resulted primarily from both a higher average balance of, and an increase in rates paid on, time deposits and interest-bearing demand deposits and a higher average balance of brokered time deposits. The increase in the cost of deposits compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 resulted from both a higher average balance of, and an increase in rates paid on, interest-bearing demand deposits, brokered time deposits and time deposits and an increase in rates paid on savings deposits.
The cost of short-term borrowings decreased nine basis points to 4.59% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to 4.68% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and decreased 38 basis points compared to 4.97% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Beginning in the second quarter of 2023, the Bank began utilizing the Federal Reserve’s Bank Term Funding Program (“BTFP”) to secure fixed rate funding for up to a one-year term and reduce short-term Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances, which are priced daily. The Bank utilized this source of funding due to its lower rate as compared to FHLB advances, the ability to prepay the obligations without penalty, and as a means to lock in funding. The decrease in the cost of short-term borrowings compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 resulted primarily from utilization of FHLB advances during the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in the cost of short-term borrowings compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 resulted primarily from the refinancing of borrowings under the BTFP at lower rates during the first quarter of 2024.
The overall cost of funds for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 increased three basis points to 3.61% compared to 3.58% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and increased 54 basis points compared to 3.07% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The increase in the cost of funds for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 resulted from a higher average balance of, and an increase in the cost of deposits, partially offset by a lower average balance of, and a decrease in the cost of short-term borrowings. The increase in the cost of funds for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 resulted from both a higher average balance of, and an increase in the cost of deposits, partially offset by both a lower average balance of, and a decrease in the cost of short-term borrowings.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2024 totaled $3.5 million, an increase of $0.8 million, or 28.9%, compared to the second quarter of 2024 and an increase of $1.9 million, or 116.5%, compared to the third quarter of 2023.
The increase in noninterest income compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 is driven by $1.1 million in income from a legal settlement recorded in the third quarter of 2024 related to one loan relationship that became impaired in the third quarter of 2021 as a result of Hurricane Ida, a $0.4 million decrease in loss on call or sale of investment securities, and a $0.2 million increase in the change in fair value of equity securities, partially offset by a $0.7 million decrease in gain on sale of other real estate owned and a $0.2 million decrease in other operating income. The decrease in the gain on sale of other real estate owned resulted primarily from the sale of a property during the second quarter of 2024 related to one loan relationship that became impaired in the third quarter of 2021 as a result of Hurricane Ida. The decrease in other operating income is primarily attributable to a $0.2 million decrease in derivative fee income.
The increase in noninterest income compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 is primarily attributable to $1.1 million in income from a legal settlement recorded in the third quarter of 2024, discussed above, a $0.4 million decrease in the loss on sale or disposition of fixed assets, a $0.2 million increase in the change in fair value of equity securities, a $0.1 million increase in income from bank owned life insurance, and a $0.2 million increase in other operating income. The decrease in the loss on sale or disposition of fixed assets resulted primarily from the disposition of automated teller machines and a reclassification of bank premises and equipment to other real estate owned during the third quarter of 2023. The increase in other operating income is primarily attributable to a $0.2 million increase in the change in the net asset value of other investments.
We project that our noninterest income in the fourth quarter of 2024 will include approximately $3.1 million in nontaxable income from bank owned life insurance upon receipt of death benefit proceeds.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2024 totaled $16.2 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 4.5%, compared to the second quarter of 2024, and an increase of $0.4 million, or 2.6%, compared to the third quarter of 2023.
The increase in noninterest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by a $0.4 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $0.3 million decrease in gain on early extinguishment of subordinated debt, and a $0.1 million increase in other operating expense. The increase in salaries and employee benefits is primarily due to investment in people with an emphasis on our Texas markets to remix and strengthen our balance sheet and an increase in health insurance claims. During the second quarter of 2024, Investar repurchased $5.0 million in principal amount of our 5.125% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2029 and $2.0 million of our 5.125% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2032 and recognized a gain on early extinguishment of subordinated debt of $0.3 million. The increase in other operating expense resulted from $0.3 million in collection and repossession expenses related to the income from the legal settlement discussed above and a $0.1 million increase in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessments, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in other real estate owned expense and a $0.1 million decrease in branch services expense.
The increase in noninterest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by a $0.5 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in depreciation and amortization. The increase in salaries and employee benefits is primarily due to investment in people with an emphasis on our Texas markets to remix and strengthen our balance sheet and deferred compensation expense, partially offset by a decrease in health insurance claims and severance expense. The decrease in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to the closure of one branch location in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in other operating expense resulted primarily from $0.3 million in collection and repossession expenses related to the income from the legal settlement discussed above and a $0.1 million increase in FDIC assessments, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in other real estate owned expense, a $0.1 million decrease in branch services expense, and a $0.1 million decrease in bank shares tax.
Taxes
Investar recorded an income tax expense of $0.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, which equates to an effective tax rate of 12.7%, compared to effective tax rates of 17.0% and 17.4% for the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The third quarter 2024 effective tax rate reflects a revision to our estimated 2024 annual effective tax rate to account for our projected increase in nontaxable income from bank owned life insurance in the fourth quarter of approximately $3.1 million upon receipt of death benefit proceeds.
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Common Share
Investar reported basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.55 and $0.54, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.41 for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, and basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.28 for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP. These measures and ratios include “tangible common equity,” “tangible assets,” “tangible equity to tangible assets,” “tangible book value per common share,” “core noninterest income,” “core earnings before noninterest expense,” “core noninterest expense,” “core earnings before income tax expense,” “core income tax expense,” “core earnings,” “core efficiency ratio,” “core return on average assets,” “core return on average equity,” “core basic earnings per share,” and “core diluted earnings per share.” We also present certain average loan, yield, net interest income and net interest margin data adjusted to show the effects of excluding interest recoveries and interest income accretion from the acquisition of loans. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding Investar’s financial results, and Investar believes that its presentation, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Investar’s business and allow investors to view performance in a manner similar to management, the entire financial services sector, bank stock analysts and bank regulators. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and Investar strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this press release to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.
Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that reflect Investar’s current views with respect to, among other things, future events and financial performance. Investar generally identifies forward-looking statements by terminology such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” or the negative version of those words or other comparable words.
Any forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on the historical performance of Investar and its subsidiaries or on Investar’s current plans, estimates and expectations. The inclusion of this forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by Investar that the future plans, estimates or expectations by Investar will be achieved. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties and assumptions relating to Investar’s operations, financial results, financial condition, business prospects, growth strategy and liquidity. If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if Investar’s underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, Investar’s actual results may vary materially from those indicated in these statements. Investar does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following, any one or more of which could materially affect the outcome of future events:
• |
the significant risks and uncertainties for our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios and other regulatory requirements caused by business and economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry in particular, whether nationally, regionally or in the markets in which we operate; |
• |
changes in inflation, interest rates, yield curves and interest rate spread relationships that affect our loan and deposit pricing; |
• |
our ability to continue to successfully execute the pivot of our near-term strategy from primarily a growth strategy to a strategy primarily focused on consistent, quality earnings through the optimization of our balance sheet, and our ability to successfully execute a long-term growth strategy; |
• |
our ability to achieve organic loan and deposit growth, and the composition of that growth; |
• |
a reduction in liquidity, including as a result of a reduction in the amount of deposits we hold or other sources of liquidity, which may be caused by, among other things, disruptions in the banking industry similar to those that occurred in early 2023 that caused bank depositors to move uninsured deposits to other banks or alternative investments outside the banking industry; |
• |
our ability to identify and enter into agreements to combine with attractive acquisition candidates, finance acquisitions, complete acquisitions after definitive agreements are entered into, and successfully integrate and grow acquired operations; |
• |
our adoption on January 1, 2023 of ASU 2016-13, and inaccuracy of the assumptions and estimates we make in establishing reserves for credit losses and other estimates; |
• |
changes in the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios, including adverse developments in borrower industries or in the repayment ability of individual borrowers; |
• |
changes in the quality and composition of, and changes in unrealized losses in, our investment portfolio, including whether we may have to sell securities before their recovery of amortized cost basis and realize losses; |
• |
the extent of continuing client demand for the high level of personalized service that is a key element of our banking approach as well as our ability to execute our strategy generally; |
• |
our dependence on our management team, and our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; |
• |
the concentration of our business within our geographic areas of operation in Louisiana, Texas and Alabama; |
• |
increasing costs of complying with new and potential future regulations; |
• |
new or increasing geopolitical tensions, including resulting from wars in Ukraine and Israel and surrounding areas; |
• |
the emergence or worsening of widespread public health challenges or pandemics including COVID-19; |
• |
concentration of credit exposure; |
• |
any deterioration in asset quality and higher loan charge-offs, and the time and effort necessary to resolve problem assets; |
• |
fluctuations in the price of oil and natural gas; |
• |
data processing system failures and errors; |
• |
risks associated with our digital transformation process, including increased risks of cyberattacks and other security breaches and challenges associated with addressing the increased prevalence of artificial intelligence; |
• |
risks of losses resulting from increased fraud attacks against us and others in the financial services industry; |
• |
potential impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets; |
• |
our potential growth, including our entrance or expansion into new markets, and the need for sufficient capital to support that growth; |
• |
the impact of litigation and other legal proceedings to which we become subject; |
• |
competitive pressures in the commercial finance, retail banking, mortgage lending and consumer finance industries, as well as the financial resources of, and products offered by, competitors; |
• |
the impact of changes in laws and regulations applicable to us, including banking, securities and tax laws and regulations and accounting standards, as well as changes in the interpretation of such laws and regulations by our regulators; |
• |
changes in the scope and costs of FDIC insurance and other coverages; |
• |
governmental monetary and fiscal policies; and |
• |
hurricanes, tropical storms, tropical depressions, floods, winter storms, droughts and other adverse weather events, all of which have affected Investar’s market areas from time to time; other natural disasters; oil spills and other man-made disasters; acts of terrorism; other international or domestic calamities; acts of God; and other matters beyond our control. |
These factors should not be construed as exhaustive. Additional information on these and other risk factors can be found in Part I Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and in the “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in Part II Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Investar’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
