EVERETT, Wash., Jan. 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coastal Financial Corporation (Nasdaq: CCB) (the “Company”), the holding company for Coastal Community Bank (the “Bank”), today reported unaudited financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2020. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $4.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted common share, compared with net income of $4.1 million, or $0.34 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2020, and $3.6 million, or $0.30 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.
“If there is one thing 2020 has taught us, it’s how resilient we are. Those words ring true time and time again as we continue to navigate our way through these unprecedented times. Despite the disruptions and economic uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, we are pleased to announce that we finished the year with $15.1 million in net income, which includes $8.3 million in provision for loan losses, primarily in response to the economic uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic. To date we have not seen a significant shift in our credit quality metrics, yet there are still economic uncertainties that exist. Deposit growth was strong, increasing $453.3 million, or 46.8%, in 2020, with core deposits totaling $1.3 billion, or 93.4% of total deposits, at December 31, 2020.
“As a preferred Small Business Administration (“SBA”) lender, we are committed to working with the SBA to provide financial assistance to existing and new small business customers via the third round of PPP loans as provided in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which opened for applications on January 19, 2021. I am proud to report that as of January 25, 2021, we have accepted applications for $233.6 million, representing 1,385 new and existing customers, in this latest round of PPP loans, consisting of $14.7 million in new PPP applications for first draws and $218.9 million in a second draw for small businesses that previously received PPP funds. Our growing CCBX division continues to develop and provide an additional source of fee income for the Company. CCBX provides Banking as a Service (“BaaS”) enabling broker dealers and digital financial service providers to offer their clients banking services. We are hard at work on CCDB, our digital banking division, and look forward to introducing our digital bank accounts later this year in connection with our previously announced collaboration with Google Pay. We recently went live with our new mobile wallet product which provides our customers with more ways to pay,” stated Eric Sprink, the President and CEO of the Company and the Bank.
“The health and safety of our employees and customers is of utmost importance, and as such we continue to enhance and modify measures already in place to keep us all healthy and safe while remaining open and serving our customers at our drive-throughs, by appointment, call center, mobile banking, online banking and ATMs. In addition, the Company continues to successfully employ remote work arrangements to the fullest extent possible. We remain committed to our customers, communities and employees as we move into this new year. The road ahead may be uncertain, but we are dedicated to strengthening existing relationships and embracing new opportunities for growth by continuing to focus on our three prong strategy of growing our core community bank, growing CCBX, our BaaS division, and building CCDB, our digital banking division.”
Results of Operations
Net interest income was $16.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, an increase of 12.2% from $15.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and an increase of 49.4% from $11.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. The increase compared to the prior quarter and prior year’s fourth quarter is largely related to increased interest income resulting from loan growth. This loan growth included $365.8 million in PPP loans as of December 31, 2020, which contributed $2.8 million in net deferred PPP fees recognized, which is an increase of $347,000, or 14.2%, when compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and $1.0 million in interest from the 1.0% contractual interest rate, for a total of $3.8 million in interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.
As of December 31, 2020, $7.1 million, or 55.2%, of the total $12.9 million in PPP net deferred fees on PPP loans have been fully earned, with $5.8 million remaining to be recognized in interest income along with interest on loans. Net deferred fees on PPP loans are earned over the life of the loan, as a yield adjustment in interest income. Forgiveness of principal, early paydowns and payoffs on PPP loans will increase interest income earned in those periods from the recognition of PPP deferred fees.
Also contributing to the increase in interest income is fee income recognized on loans made through the Main Street Lending Program (“MSLP”). During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, we recognized $383,000 in earned fees through MSLP loans, and there was no fee income on MSLP loans in previous quarters.
Our yield on loans receivable was 4.64% for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to 4.33% for the three months ended September 30, 2020, and 5.36% for the three months ended December 31, 2019. In the first three quarters of 2020 we generally saw a decrease in loan yield resulting from the lower interest rate that PPP loans earn and downward repricing of our variable rate loans in the low interest rate environment. The increase in yield on loans receivable for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 was due to the addition of higher rate, non-PPP loans that were added during the quarter along with the recognition of deferred fees on PPP loans that were forgiven and paid off during the quarter ended December 31, 2020, as well as fee income recognized on MSLP loans. MSLP loans were established by the Federal Reserve to support lending to small- and medium-sized businesses that were in sound financial condition prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Federal Reserve purchases participations on these loans, with the Bank retaining approximately 5% of the outstanding balance. Management concluded that the sold portion of the MSLP loans qualified for sale accounting. The MSLP loans have a five year maturity with deferral of principal payments for two years and deferral of interest payments for one year. The program stopped purchasing participations on January 8, 2021.
Non-PPP loan growth was $122.0 million, or 11.5%, for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and this included CCBX loan growth of $21.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The average rate on new loans was approximately 4.26%, compared to an average rate of approximately 3.44% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. Interest and fees on loans was $1.6 million higher compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020 and $5.6 million higher than the three months ended December 31, 2019 due to increased loan balances, increased average interest rate, recognition of PPP deferred fees on PPP loans that were forgiven and paid off and recognition of fee income on MSLP loans. Interest income from interest earning deposits with other banks decreased $23,000, and $401,000 from September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, to $76,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to $99,000 and $477,000 the three months ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, as a result of lower interest rates.
Interest expense was $1.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, a $133,000 decrease from the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and a $538,000 decrease from the quarter ended December 31, 2019. The interest expense decrease occurred despite an increase in average interest bearing deposits for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 of $29.2 million and $59.8 million, over the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, as a result of lower interest rates. Interest expense on borrowed funds was $407,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to $418,000 and $192,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. This increase from the quarter ended December 31, 2019 was primarily the result of the PPPLF borrowings, which were obtained to provide liquidity to fund the PPP loans; the decrease from the quarter ended September 30, 2020 is the result of a decrease in average PPPLF borrowings due to paydowns on PPP loans.
Net interest income increased $15.4 million, or 36.6%, to $57.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $42.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. These increases are largely related to increased interest income resulting from loan growth, the recognition of deferred fees on PPP loans that have been forgiven and paid off, and the additional fee income recognized on MSLP loans. Interest and fees on loans increased $16.6 million, or 36.5%, over the prior year period, despite a decrease in yield on loans receivable of 0.74% for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the year ended December 31, 2019. Non-PPP loan growth of $248.0 million, which includes CCBX loan growth of $65.3 million, for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the year ended December 31, 2019, contributed to this increase. Also contributing to the increase in loans is $365.8 million in PPP loans as of December 31, 2020. An average balance of $302.7 million in PPP loans contributed $3.0 million from the 1% interest rate and $7.2 million in fees recognized, for a total of $10.2 million in interest income on PPP loans for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the year ended December 31, 2019. Interest and fee income on MSLP loans also contributed to the increase, and was $398,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to no income on MSLP loans for the year ended December 31, 2019. Net deferred fees on PPP loans are earned over the life of the loan, as a yield adjustment in interest income. Forgiveness of principal, early paydowns and payoffs on PPP loans will increase interest income earned in those periods from the recognition of PPP net deferred fees. Interest income from interest earning deposits with other banks decreased $1.8 million, or 72.6%, to $663,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, as a result of lower interest rates. Interest expense decreased $924,000, or 14.1%, to $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $6.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Lower interest rates resulted in a decrease in interest expense despite a $158.6 million increase in average interest bearing deposits and $144.0 million increase in average borrowings for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the prior year period. Borrowings included $124.1 million in average PPPLF borrowings, which were obtained to partially fund the PPP loans.
Net interest margin widened in the quarter ending December 31, 2020 and will likely fluctuate over the near term as round one and round two PPP loans are forgiven and round three PPP loans are on-boarded. Accelerated deferred fee recognition related to the forgiven PPP loans supplemented interest income resulting in a net interest margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 of 3.89%, a 28 basis point increase from 3.62% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and a 37 basis point decrease from 4.26% for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. The increase over the prior quarter is due to the increase of higher rate, non-PPP loans coupled with the recognition of PPP deferred fees on PPP loans that paid down or paid off during the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The decrease in net interest margin from the quarter ended December 31, 2019 was largely a result of the low interest rate on PPP loans and lower interest rates on all other loans, especially our variable rate loans. PPP loans accounted for an average of $424.3 million in gross loans for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, and bear a contractual interest rate of 1.0%, and yield approximately 3.61% after considering the amortization of deferred PPP loan fees, for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Cost of funds decreased four basis points in the quarter ended December 31, 2020 to 0.29%, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and decreased 41 basis points from the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Deposits into noninterest bearing and low interest bearing accounts by new and existing customers contributed to the reduced cost of funds. In addition, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) lowered the Fed Funds rates five times for a total decrease of 2.25% since June 2019, which has impacted market rates paid on deposits. The lower interest rate environment will continue to impact the Company's net interest margin. Net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2020 decreased 40 basis points compared to the year ended December 31, 2019 as a result of the low rate on PPP loans and lower rates on all other loans, especially our variable rate loans. Cost of funds decreased 33 basis points to 0.40% for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to 0.73% for the year ended December 31, 2019. Growth in new and existing noninterest bearing deposit accounts and the lowered Fed Funds rates contributed to the reduced cost of funds.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the average balance of total loans receivable increased by $40.5 million, to $1.53 billion, compared to $1.49 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, as a result of loan growth. New loans in the fourth quarter of 2020 had an average interest rate of approximately 4.26%, compared to approximately 3.44% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. Non-PPP loans grew by $122.0 million, or 11.5%, during the quarter ended December 31, 2020. PPP loans totaled $365.8 million as of December 31, 2020, which is a decrease of $87.0 million compared to the quarter ended September 31, 2020. PPP loans bear a contractual interest rate of 1.0%, yielding approximately 3.61%, after considering the amortization of deferred PPP loan fees. The average balance of total loans receivable at December 31, 2020 increased by $622.2 million to $1.53 billion, compared to $911.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, due to overall growth in the loan portfolio, combined with the aforementioned growth in PPP loans. Non-PPP loans grew by $248.0 million, or 26.4%, to $1.19 billion for the year ended December 31, 2020. Total yield on loans receivable for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 was 4.64%, compared to 4.33% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and 5.36% for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. The increase in yield on loans receivable over the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was a result of new higher rate, non-PPP loans added during the fourth quarter, combined with the recognition of PPP deferred fee income on PPP loans that paid down or paid off as well as fee income recognized on MSLP loans. The reduction in yield on loans receivable compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2019 was a result of the lower rate that PPP loans bear and the downward repricing of our variable rate loans in the low rate environment. PPP loans reduced the yield on loans receivable* by 36 basis points for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.
Contractual yield on loans receivable, excluding earned fees approximated 3.66% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to 3.61% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and 5.15% for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the average balance of PPP loans was $424.3 million. These loans bear a contractual rate of 1.0%, which negatively impacted the average contractual yield on loans. Excluding PPP loans and their related earned fees and interest, the contractual yield on loans receivable approximated 4.65%*. Also contributing to the reduction in contractual yield was the reduction in rates by the FOMC, which has resulted in lower rates on our variable rate loans and on new and renewing loans. Although we have rate floors in place for $398.6 million, or 25.6%, in existing loans, the rate reductions by FOMC has a corresponding impact on yield on loans receivables and the net interest margin in future periods.
Cost of deposits for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 was 0.22%, a decrease of five basis points from 0.27% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and a 41 basis point decrease from the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Deposit growth in new and existing noninterest bearing and low interest bearing accounts contributed to the reduced cost of funds in conjunction with rate reductions on deposits. We gained new customer relationships by making PPP loans to noncustomers that continue to move their deposit relationships to the Bank. Market conditions for deposits continued to be competitive during the quarter ended December 31, 2020; however, we continued lowering deposit rates, with the largest changes to our interest-bearing demand deposit and certificate of deposit rates being effective in second quarter of 2020. We expect to continue repricing high-rate certificates of deposits and letting those high cost deposits run-off when appropriate; such as when we are able to replace them with lower cost, core deposits.
Return on average assets (“ROA”) was 1.04% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 compared to 0.95% and 1.31% for the quarters ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. ROA was impacted in the fourth quarter of 2020 and prior quarter in 2020 by increased provision for loan losses due to the economic uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic and loan growth. Pre-tax, pre-provision ROA* was 1.90% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to 1.72% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and 1.95% for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.
During the second and third quarters of 2020, significant focus was placed on helping the small businesses in our communities through the PPP. We are currently accepting applications for the third round of PPP loans which will begin funding in the first quarter of 2021. The PPP loans from the first and second rounds in 2020 have had a significant impact on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. These PPP loans along with those loans that fund in round three will continue to impact our results in the future. During the quarter ended December 31, 2020 we began receiving forgiveness payments from the SBA. Throughout this earnings release, we will address the impact, to the extent possible, of these loans including borrowings received through PPPLF to help fund these loans and to aid in liquidity, in addition to earnings and expenses related to these activities. Any estimated adjusted ratios that exclude the impact of this activity are non-GAAP measures. For more information about non-GAAP financial measures, please see the end of this earnings release.

(2) A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures are set forth at the end of this earnings release. Noninterest income was $2.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, an increase of $107,000 from $1.9 million at the third quarter of 2020, and a decrease of $10,000 from $2.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase over the prior quarter was primarily due to a $243,000 increase in loan referral fees that are earned when we originate a variable rate loan and arrange for the borrower to enter into an interest rate swap agreement with a third party to fix the interest rate for an extended period, a $159,000 increase in BaaS fees as a result of adding new relationships, and a $91,000 increase in mortgage broker fees, which are a result of increased production from the attractive low rate environment, partially offset by a decrease in other income due to the revaluation and write-down of an equity interest of $400,000. The $10,000 decrease over the quarter ended December 31, 2019 was primarily due to the revaluation and write-down of an equity interest of $400,000 recorded in other income, partially offset by $105,000 increase in mortgage broker fees, a $91,000 increase in loan referral fees, and a $79,000 increase in BaaS fees.
As of December 31, 2020, there were six active CCBX relationships, two CCBX relationships in the friends and family trials, three CCBX relationships in onboarding/implementation, four signed letters of intent for a CCBX relationship and a solid pipeline of potential new CCBX relationships. The following table illustrates the activity and growth in CCBX for the periods presented:
As of December 31, 2020 September 30, 2020 December 31, 2019 Active 6 4 2 Friends and family trials 2 1 0 Implementation / onboarding 3 4 3 Signed letters of intent 4 2 0 Total CCBX relationships 15 11 5 Total noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 increased to $10.5 million compared to $9.7 million for the preceding quarter and compared to $8.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Noninterest expense variances for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020, include a $66,000 increase in other expenses due to $65,000 increase in software license, maintenance and subscription expenses, which is expected to increase as we invest more in automated processing and as we grow product lines and our CCBX division. Salaries and employee benefits increased $462,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 compared to $6.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, which is related to the hiring in our CCBX and CCDB divisions and additional staff for our ongoing banking growth initiatives. Legal and professional fees increased $203,000 due to CCBX division expenses and higher costs associated with legal and accounting work related to financial reporting. The increased expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 compared to the fourth quarter in 2019 were largely due to a $1.5 million increase in salary expenses related to hiring staff for our CCBX division and additional staff for our ongoing banking growth initiatives. Other expenses increased $301,000 in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to $692,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, which is largely due to a $159,000 increase in software license, maintenance and subscription expenses, and a $74,000 increase in the provision for unfunded commitments. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, legal and professional fees increased $353,000 and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessments increased $251,000. The increase in legal and professional expenses is associated with CCBX division expenses and higher costs associated with legal and accounting work related to financial reporting. The increase in FDIC assessments is primarily the result of a credit issued to the Bank for assessments in the quarter ended December 31, 2019, combined with an increase in deposits compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2019.
The provision for income taxes was $1.2 million at December 31, 2020, a $150,000 increase compared to $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2020 and a $285,000 increase compared to $947,000 for the fourth quarter of 2019, both as a result of increased taxable income. The Company uses a federal statutory tax rate of 21% as a basis for calculating provision for income taxes.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $16.5 million, or 0.9%, to $1.77 billion at December 31, 2020 compared to $1.75 billion at September 30, 2020. The primary cause of the increase was $37.7 million in increased loans receivable, as a result of overall growth in the loan portfolio, partially offset by a $23.9 million decrease in interest earning deposits with other banks. Total assets increased $637.6 million, or 56.5% at December 31, 2020, compared to $1.13 billion at December 31, 2019. This increase was largely the result of a $608.0 million increase in loans receivable, which includes $365.8 million in PPP loans as of December 31, 2020, combined with a $32.9 million increase in interest earning deposits with other banks.
Total loans receivable increased $37.7 million to $1.55 billion at December 31, 2020, from $1.51 billion at September 30, 2020, and increased $608.0 million from $939.1 million at December 31, 2019. The growth in loans receivable over the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was due primarily to growth in non-PPP loans of $122.0 million consisting of an increase of $69.7 million in commercial real estate loans, $37.0 million in other commercial and industrial loans, and $22.7 million in residential real estate loans, partially offset by a decrease of $87.0 million in PPP loans. Total loans receivable is net of $9.2 million in net deferred origination fees, $5.8 million of which is attributed to PPP loans. Deferred fees on PPP loans are earned over the life of the loan, with a maximum maturity of five years. As of December 31, 2020, 55.2% of the total $12.9 million in net deferred fees on the first and second rounds of PPP loans was fully earned. The increase in loans receivable over the quarter ended December 31, 2019 was due to a $365.8 million increase in PPP loans, and $248.0 million increase in non-PPP loans consisting of $161.5 million increase in commercial real estate loans, $62.0 million in other commercial and industrial loans and $28.9 million in residential real estate loans.
The second round of the PPP program closed to new loan applicants on August 8, 2020, and since that time we have been accepting applications from customers for loan forgiveness. As of December 31, 2020, we have received $87.0 million in forgiveness payments or principal paydowns, on 472 loans. We expect that the pace of forgiveness will increase in the first half of 2021. Forgiveness of principal, early paydowns and payoffs on PPP loans will increase interest income earned in those periods from the recognition of deferred PPP loan fees. Customers with two-year loans are also able to request that their PPP loan be extended to a five year maturity, which we anticipate may be a good option for customers not eligible for forgiveness.
The third round of PPP loans opened to applicants on January 19, 2021. We expect to again accept and process applications for both existing and new customers, to help small businesses in our communities. As of January 25, 2021, we have accepted applications for $233.6 million, representing 1,385 new and existing customers, in the third round of the PPP program.

Total deposits increased $61.3 million, or 4.5%, to $1.42 billion at December 31, 2020 from $1.36 billion at September 30, 2020. The increase is largely due to a $57.9 million increase in core deposits, which is primarily the result of expanding and growing banking relationships with new customers, including deposit relationships from PPP loans made to noncustomers, who moved their banking relationship to the Bank. During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, noninterest bearing deposits increased $21.6 million, or 3.8%, to $592.3 million from $570.7 million at September 30, 2020. Included in the increase in noninterest bearing deposits is an increase in CCBX deposits of $11.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. In the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020, NOW and money market accounts increased $33.4 million, and savings accounts increased $2.9 million. BaaS-brokered deposits increased $8.6 million, and time deposits decreased $5.3 million. Total deposits increased $453.3 million, or 46.8%, to $1.42 billion at December 31, 2020 compared to $968.0 million at December 31, 2019. Noninterest bearing deposits increased $221.0 million, or 59.5%, to $592.3 million at December 31, 2020 from $371.2 million at December 31, 2019. NOW and money market accounts increased $220.4 million, or 50.3%, to $658.3 million at December 31, 2020, and savings accounts increased $24.3 million and BaaS-brokered deposits increased $9.9 million while time deposits decreased $22.2 million. Efforts to retain and grow core deposits are evidenced by the high ratios in these categories when compared to total deposits.

The PPPLF extends low cost borrowing lines, 0.35% interest rate, to eligible financial institutions that originate PPP loans, taking the loans as collateral at face value. Borrowings are required to be paid down as the pledged PPP loans are paid down. As of December 31, 2020, there was $153.7 million in outstanding PPPLF advances and pledged PPP loans, compared to $202.6 million at September 30, 2020. The PPPLF program is currently available for new borrowings until March 31, 2021.
The Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) allows us to borrow against our line of credit, which is collateralized by certain loans. As of December 31, 2020, we borrowed a total of $25.0 million in FHLB medium term advances. This includes a $10.0 million advance with a remaining term of 2.25 years and $15.0 million advance with a remaining term of 4.25 years. These advances provide an alternative and stable source of funding for loan demand. Although there are no immediate plans to borrow additional funds, additional FHLB borrowing capacity of $65.7 million was available under this arrangement as of December 31, 2020.
Total shareholders’ equity increased $5.0 million since September 30, 2020. The increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily due to $4.7 million in net earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2020.

As previously disclosed, during the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company contributed $7.5 million in capital to the Bank due to the volatile economic environment. No additional contributions have been made; however, the Company could downstream additional funds to the Bank in the future, if necessary.
Asset Quality
The allowance for loan losses was $19.3 million and 1.25% of loans receivable at December 31, 2020 compared to $17.0 million and 1.13% at September 30, 2020 and $11.5 million and 1.22% at December 31, 2019. At December 31, 2020, there was $365.8 million in PPP loans, which are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. Excluding PPP loans, the allowance for loan losses to loans receivable* would be 1.62% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Provision for loan losses totaled $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, and $820,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2019. Net charge-offs totaled $384,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to $1,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and $238,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Net charge-offs for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 primarily included a charge-off for $368,000 to secure a payoff of a $3.3 million longer-term nonperforming loan from the portfolio.
The Company’s provision for loan losses during the quarters ended December 31, 2020, September 30, 2020, June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, is related to an increase in qualitative factors related to the economic uncertainties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and loan growth. The Company is not required to implement the provisions of the Current Expected Credit Loss accounting standard until January 1, 2023 and will continue to account for the allowance for credit losses under the incurred loss model.
At December 31, 2020, our nonperforming assets were $712,000, or 0.04% of total assets, compared to $4.5 million, or 0.26%, of total assets at September 30, 2020, and $1.0 million, or 0.09%, of total assets at December 31, 2019. Nonperforming assets decreased $3.8 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020, with the pay-off and partial charge-off of one loan ($3.3 million) and principal pay-downs and pay-offs on other loans.
Management is continuing to actively monitor the loan portfolio to identify borrowers experiencing difficulties with repayment and are proactively working with them to reduce potential losses through the prudent use of PPP loans, deferrals, and modifications in accordance with regulatory guidelines. There were no repossessed assets or other real estate owned at December 31, 2020. Our nonperforming loans to loans receivable ratio was 0.05% at December 31, 2020, compared to 0.30% at September 30, 2020, and 0.11% at December 31, 2019. Nonperforming loans totaled $712,000 at December 31, 2020, compared to $4.5 million at September 30, 2020. The decrease of $3.8 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was largely due to one nonperforming construction, land and land development loan for $3.3 million that was paid-off and included a partial charge-off of $368,000. These changes, combined with other pay-offs and principal reductions, resulted an overall decrease in our ratio of nonperforming loans to loans receivable and nonperforming loans to total assets compared to September 30, 2020.
To date we have not seen a significant change in our credit quality metrics, as demonstrated by the low level of charge-offs and nonperforming loans for the year ended December 31, 2020. The long-term economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, political gridlock, trade issues, and decline in oil prices is unknown; however, the Company remains diligent in its efforts to communicate and proactively work with borrowers to help mitigate potential credit deterioration.
Pursuant to federal guidance, the Company deferred and/or modified payments on loans to assist customers financially during the COVID-19 pandemic and economic shutdown. A total of $233.9 million in loans were deferred and/or modified under this guidance during the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020. All of the loans that were on deferred and/or modified status as of the quarter ended September 30, 2020 have either successfully returned to active status or have closed. All of these loans are current, with no loans more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2020. For the quarter ended December 31, 2020, three loans, or $9.3 million remained on deferred and/or modified status. The purpose of this program is to provide cash flow relief for small business customers as they navigate through the uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company’s deferral program has been successful as evidenced by customers’ ability to migrate from deferral to active status and resume making payments as planned.

(4) We calculate book value per share as total shareholders’ equity at the end of the relevant period divided by the outstanding number of our common shares at the end of each period. (5) Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. We calculate tangible book value per share as total shareholders’ equity at the end of the relevant period, less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by the outstanding number of our common shares at the end of each period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is book value per share. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets as of any of the dates indicated. As a result, tangible book value per share is the same as book value per share as of each of the dates indicated. (6) Annualized calculations. (7) Capital ratios are for the Company, Coastal Financial Corporation. Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of such financial performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these adjusted measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled adjusted measures reported by other companies.
The following non-GAAP measures are presented to illustrate the impact of provision for loan losses and provision for income taxes on net income and return on average assets.
Pre-tax, pre-provision net income is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of provision for loan losses and provision for income taxes from net income. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income.
Pre-tax, pre-provision return on average assets is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of provision for loan losses and provision for income taxes from return on average assets. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is return on average assets.
Reconciliations of the GAAP and non-GAAP measures are presented below.

We will continue to be diligent in monitoring credit and changes in the economy, keeping the lines of communication open with our customers, but the full impact of these challenging economic times on our financial condition and liquidity remains to be seen at this time.
