John Marshall Bancorp, Inc. Provides Mid-Quarter Update on Loan Modifications

$194 Million Have Made Payments; Remaining $56 Million Expected to Resume by Year’s End

RESTON, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–John Marshall Bancorp, Inc. (OTCQB: JMSB) (the “Company”), parent company of John Marshall Bank (the “Bank”) provided an update on its COVID loan modifications originally disclosed in its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

To recap, as of June 30, 2020, the Company had modified 172 loans with outstanding balances of $250.2 million, representing 16.5% of total loans. As of September 8, 2020, 149 loans representing balances of $194.0 million have resumed making regularly scheduled payments. These resumption figures amount to approximately 87% of the total number of loans and 78% of the aggregate balances modified. The resumption rate on the subset of loan modifications that have expired to date equaled 97% in terms of number of loans or 92% in terms of loan balances.

Two relationships, comprised of three loans and totaling $12.6 million were granted a second deferral. Each deferral will expire in October. One relationship consists of two loans totaling $4.0 million and is secured by the assets and the real estate of a restaurant as well as the borrower’s primary residence. The relationship has a combined loan-to-value of 76%. The second relationship is an $8.6 million loan on a retail shopping center with a loan-to-value of 68%. The first modification for this loan entailed deferral of principal and interest. The second modification, reflecting an improvement in the borrower’s position, was a deferral of principal only. These loans are well-secured with full guarantees from the owners; the Company does not anticipate a loss related to these two relationships.

Loans with COVID deferrals as of September 8, 2020 represented 3.7% of total loans as of June 30, 2020. The Company maintains regular contact with borrowers having COVID loan modifications, anticipates that the remaining $56.2 million will resume making regularly scheduled monthly payments and expects that the COVID modification process will be materially completed by December 31, 2020.

Commenting on the progress, Chris Bergstrom, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “John Marshall Bank continues to distinguish itself as a bank with a consultative customer service experience. We worked diligently to understand our impacted customers’ situations and equally hard to find solutions that allowed affected customers to regain their footing while mitigating risk to the Company. Our approach appears to be working. We expect to have substantially completed the modification process by the end of 2020.”

As of September 8, 2020, there were $56.2 million of loans remaining subject to COVID loan modifications. There were four commercial and industrial loans totaling $0.6 million and 19 commercial real estate (CRE) loans totaling $55.7 million. The following table summarizes the CRE loans still subject to COVID loan modifications as of September 8, 2020:
