| (1) Prepayment penalty income of $69,000 and $18,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, respectively, are from commercial real estate loans. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Net interest margin for the first quarter of 2021 increased 7 basis points to 3.80% from 3.73% for the fourth quarter of 2020, primarily due to a 19 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a 3 basis point decrease in the reported yield on interest-earning assets.
Net interest income before provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2021 was $12.8 million, an increase of $574,000, or 4.7%, compared to $12.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, primarily due to a $317,000 decrease in interest expense and a $257,000 increase in interest income.
Interest income on securities available for sale and other investments for the first quarter of 2021 decreased $21,000, or 5.8%, to $348,000, compared to $369,000 for the fourth quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a $21,000 decrease in interest income on securities available for sale. The decrease was the result of an 8 basis point decrease in the yield on the average balance of securities available for sale in the period, which is primarily due to lower yields on securities purchased during the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021.
Interest income from contractual interest rates on loans for the first quarter of 2021 increased $10,000, or 0.1%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, reflecting an increase of $52.3 million, or 4.7% in the average balance of loans, partially offset by a 12 basis point decrease in average contractual interest rate on loans. The amount of discount accretion on SBA loans for the first quarter of 2021 decreased $112,000 compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 due to a decrease in SBA loan payoffs. The reported interest income on loans, net of SBA discount accretions and other components, for the first quarter of 2021 increased $278,000, or 2.1%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.
Interest expense for the first quarter of 2021 was $877,000, a decrease of $317,000, or 26.5%, compared to $1.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily due to downward adjustments of the Bank’s deposit rates during the fourth quarter, partially offset by an increase of $23.5 million, or 3.5%, in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest margin for the first quarter of 2021 decreased 15 basis points to 3.80% from 3.95% for the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to a 103 basis point decrease in the reported yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by a 127 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest income before provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2021 increased $1.6 million, or 14.7%, to $12.8 million, compared to $11.1 million for the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to a $2.4 million decrease in interest expense, partially offset by a $713,000 decrease in interest income.
Interest income on securities available for sale and other investments for the first quarter of 2021 decreased $303,000, or 46.6%, to $348,000, compared to $651,000, for the first quarter of 2020. The interest income on other investments decreased $220,000 as a result of a 123 basis point decrease in the yield on the average balance of Fed funds sold and other investments in the period. The interest income on securities available for sale decreased $83,000, primarily due to a 131 basis point decrease in the yield on the average balance of securities available for sale and higher premium amortizations from accelerated prepayments during the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020.
Interest income from contractual interest rates on loans for the first quarter of 2021 decreased $922,000, or 7.0%, compared to the first quarter of 2020, reflecting a 104 basis point decrease in average contractual interest rate on loans. The decrease in the average contractual interest rate was primarily due to cumulative market rate cuts of 150 basis points by the Federal Reserve in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in interest income from contractual interest was partially offset by an increase of $167.1 million, or 16.7% in average balance of loans. The amount of discount accretion on SBA loans for the first quarter of 2021 decreased $51,000 compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to a decrease in SBA loan payoffs, partially offset by an increase in monthly discount accretions in line with an increase in SBA loan balance at March 31, 2021, compared to March 31, 2020. The reported interest income on loans, net of SBA discount accretions and other components, for the first quarter of 2021 decreased $410,000, or 3.0%, compared to the first quarter of 2020.
Interest expense for the first quarter of 2021 decreased $2.4 million, or 72.8%, to $877,000, compared to $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to the Bank’s downward adjustments in deposit rates after the rate cuts by the Federal Reserve in March of 2020 and a decrease of $25.4 million, or 3.5%, in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities.

The Bank recorded $620,000 in provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2021, which includes $636,000 for accrued interest receivables on deferred loans and loans that are no longer on deferral but have not fully caught up on their accrued interest, and $12,000 in net reversal from loss factor change and loan balance change. Management continues to evaluate the qualitative and quantitative factors on all loan types. The Bank recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $743,000 for the first quarter of 2020.
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2021 was $3.0 million, a decrease of $426,000, or 12.6%, from $3.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, primarily due to a decrease of $306,000 in gain on sale of loans and a decrease of $275,000 in other income, partially offset by an increase of $164,000 in loan servicing fees from a decrease in SBA loan payoffs. Gain on sale of loans for the first quarter of 2021 was $1.9 million from the sale of $22.4 million in SBA loans with an average premium of 10.51%, whereas gain on sale of loans for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $2.2 million from the sale of $28.5 million in SBA loans with an average premium of 8.83%. The decrease in other income was primarily due to a gain from a property sale during the fourth quarter of 2020.
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2021 was $3.0 million, an increase of $670,000, compared to $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to an increase of $727,000 in gain on sale of loans and an increase of $139,000 in loan servicing fees, partially offset by a decrease of $94,000 in service charges on deposits and a decrease of $102,000 in other income. Gain on sale of loans for the first quarter of 2020 was $1.2 million from the sale of $17.5 million in SBA loans with an average premium of 8.41%. The increase of $139,000 in loan servicing fees was due to a decrease in SBA loan payoffs during the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020.
Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2021 was $8.0 million, a decrease of $446,000, or 5.3%, compared to $8.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $874,000 in salary and employee benefits, partially offset by an increase of $115,000 promotion and advertising expense, an increase of $107,000 in foundation donation and other contributions expenses, and an increase of $110,000 in other expenses. The decrease in salary and employee benefits was primarily due to an increase in deferred loan origination costs from originating 1,336 SBA’s second draw Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans for an aggregate loan balance of $74.2 million during the quarter. The increase in promotion and advertising expense was primarily due to a reduction in promotion and advertising expense in the fourth quarter of 2020, and the increase in foundation donation expense was a result of the increase in net income in the first quarter of 2021.
Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2021 was $8.0 million, a decrease of $241,000, or 2.9%, compared to $8.2 million for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $409,000 in salary and employee benefits and a decrease of $117,000 in director’s fees expense, partially offset by an increase of $177,000 in foundation donation and other contributions expenses. The decrease in salary and employee benefits was primarily due to the aforementioned increase in deferred loan origination costs for SBA PPP loans, partially offset by additional accruals made to employee incentives during the first quarter of 2021. The decrease in director’s expense was due to a decrease of $108,000 in restricted stock unit expense resulting from the full vesting of the restricted stock units in July 2020.
Income tax provision was $2.1 million for the first quarter, $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, and $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2020. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 was 28.8%, compared to 28.4% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 26.1% for the first quarter of 2020. The higher effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020 was primarily due to realizing a lower amount of tax benefits as a result of a decrease in the number of non-qualified stock option exercises.
